Some people believe that schools should reward those students who show excellent academic performance while some believe that only the ones who show significant improvement in the grades should be rewarded. Discuss both the views and give your opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

There is no doubt that

school

curriculums need to modernise and,

hence

, integrating

tablets

Use synonyms

into classroom activities can be seen as a step forward in education.

However

Linking Words

, I am strongly against the practice of schools asking

parents

Use synonyms

to supply these gadgets for three reasons. The first reason is

the expense

. Even though some might argue that a basic tablet can be bought for as little as £100, I still believe that

this

Linking Words

is too much to ask

parents

Use synonyms

to pay from their own pocket, especially for those with more than one child.

Moreover

Linking Words

, in order to minimise compatibility issues, it is probable that the

school

Use synonyms

will want all of their pupils to have the same model and,

therefore

Linking Words

,

parents

Use synonyms

won’t have any say in exactly which device they are able to purchase.

This

Linking Words

brings me to my second reason, which is that

tablets

Use synonyms

are too fragile to be looked after properly by young children.

Tablets

Use synonyms

are made of components that can be easily broken. The screen,

for example

, could easily become cracked

while

being carried in a

school

bag or smashed if accidentally dropped.

As a result

Linking Words

, the potential cost of replacing even one

device each year makes the scheme even more unfeasible for most

parents

. The most obvious reason why

parents

Use synonyms

shouldn’t have to pay for a tablet,

however

Linking Words

, is that all teaching materials should be provided by a

school

Use synonyms

.

While

Linking Words

I concede that many learning institutes are facing government cutbacks, I still feel that schools should provide all the tools a child needs to receive an education. If teachers feel that

tablets

Use synonyms

are now a fundamental part of a child’s learning, they should be included in the

school

Use synonyms

’s budget and,

consequently

Linking Words

, purchased and maintained by the

school

Use synonyms

.

To sum up

Linking Words

, not only is it too expensive to ask

parents

Use synonyms

to buy their child a tablet, but it is simply not the responsibility of

parents

Use synonyms

to provide classroom materials.

Therefore

Linking Words

, despite current cuts in spending on education, I don’t believe that families should have to pay for these gadgets to be used in class.
