Some people believe that unpaid community service should be a compulsory part of high school programs (for example working on charity, teaching sport to younger people) To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In today’s society, people’s perspectives on education have shown significant divergence. Therefore, the question of whether high schools should include a compulsory curriculum for free community service, such as working in a charity, helping the neighbourhood, or mentoring younger children, has become a matter of considerable debate. From my perspective, I agree with the viewpoint that students should engage in volunteer campaigns as these can bring about numerous benefits to them.
