Some people think that the main purpose of school is to turn children into good citizens and trainees rather than to benefit them as individuals

Some people think that goal of the
school
is to help children in becoming good
citizens
and trainees
instead
of benefitting them as an individual.
Although
Good
citizens
can't contribute much to the development of the
country
, a good individual can contribute.In my ,opinion
school
should help
students
to become better as
individuals
rather than turning them into good
citizens
. The greatest advantage of benefiting them as
individuals
is they will contribute towards the development of the
country
.A good entrepreneur can generate millions of jobs and feed millions of families.The
school
needs to help them to grow as
individuals
later on society will benefit from it.
For example
,Bill Gates co-founded Microsoft which is contributing towards the US economy later on bill gates donated his wealth to help the whole world for different causes.The
school
helped him to grow as an individual ,
in addition
, helped him to code on the computer later on with his coding skills he created windows which is a product of Microsoft,
therefore
Good
individuals
always help the
country
. The disadvantage of schools turning
students
into just good
citizens
is they will never question their
state
because schools are just focused on them becoming good
citizens
.A good citizen will never ask a question from his
state
.Asking questions is the backbone of democracy and
individuals
can just obey everything without even asking a question.
State
's adversaries can take use these kinds of
individuals
against the
state
for instance
,In Pakistan 14 years old teenagers are joining terrorist groups and fighting against the
state
they are being brainwashed with
this
false information
however
, and they even don't know what they are doing the are being told
this
good for the
state
, in reality, it is not.
Thus
just good citizen is not good for the
country
and society.
To sum up
, the Purpose of its schools is to turn
students
is too good
citizens
instead
of helping them grow as
individuals
that is
what some people say but it has serious consequences just converting
students
into good
citizens
furthermore
Society greatly benefits from excellent
individuals
.
