Some think schools should rewards students who have the best academic results, while others think it’s more important to reward students who achieve other types of success (such as sports, music, and good behavior). Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

of controversy what kind of achievement schools should reward their
students
.
While
there are some good arguments in favour of the view that schools just prioritize academic results, I would argue that other types of accomplishment should be included. On the one hand, there is a growing belief that academic performance should be the focus of education systems. The first reason is that parents believe the
school
is the place to learn academic knowledge,
such
as math or physics, which is considered to be the key to their children's future success.
Thus
they expect the
school
to implement a policy to urge their
students
to pursue academic success.

in the long term.
For instance
, in Vietnam, a great proportion of
students
who pay attention to other activities get lower scores than the others.
On the other hand
, giving awards to other types of accomplishment could open up numerous opportunities for younger generations.
Firstly
, rewarding various subjects could allow them to find out their strengths beyond academic content.
For example
, in Vietnam, many professional athletes become successful after figuring out their talent when they attend
school
competitions. Another reason is that participating in different programmes serves as a means for
students
to enhance their social skills, which are appreciated by big organizations nowadays.
This
would help
students
to comprehensively grow and secure their successful careers in the future. In conclusion,
while
there are certain reasons why many believe that merits should be given only to academic achievements, it seems to me that
school
including other kinds of accomplishment is a better option.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
