Education is definitely necessary to
shape a student’s career. A student’s behavior depends on the school
environment. Personally talking, my school has a great contribution on what I
am today. Don’t go on my professional career but I am talking about my behavior
and character. A school has a great
contribution on a student’s mentality and behavior. I have seen very rude
students admitting in my school but while graduating they were very gentle and
a good student. This is how much a school can contribute in building a student.
Better schools get better achievements and best graduates. In today’s generation only theories won’t do. Some schools even have no any provision of practical's. Some schools have their mindset that studying and passing is the only thing a student requires. It is a misconception; students need to develop develop themselves a lot and that is only possible when schools make a equal balance between theory and practical learning. Practical's and interactions are a lot more important in a student’s progress. So, in today’s article I will be discussing some of the drawbacks of schools that should be improved.

It's school not business
Education is a basic child right. But these days studying has become challenge for students. And yes it has become a business. What about unprivileged students? They cannot even utilize their right. Government schools somehow charge a little fee. But what about private schools? Are the students going to a luxury hotel? How can the Government except a country to be developed by youths when they’re not given right to study. Even kindergarten charges lakhs. Parents work hard for lifetime not to only keep depositing money to the schools. Private educational institutions are totally a cheat. They charge money and distribute 50% to the staffs and what about the other 50%? Free education isn’t possible we, students know it and we’re not even demanding that but lakhs is not sensible too. This is the first change I want to see in future and I hope future students don’t have to face the “BUSINESS schools” like we faced.
Practical rather than theories
Yes, theories are very much important I agree. But education should be something that will help them in future too. Practical's allow students to experience things and realize the meaning of life. Practical's does not mean chemistry labs but self development workshops and group projects. Students often get monotonous on theory studies. Trigonometry is not applicable in my life yet. So there should be balance between theory and practical's. There are several benefits of practical including confidence booster; students get knowledge about job procedures, students can identify their passion.
Extra curriculars are equally important
Students should definitely get a break from studies. Talking about my school, it had balance between extra curriculars and studies. So I never felt monotonous and students were always active in school. But there are schools that only focus on studies. Curriculars might be debate, competitions, sports music, and language classes and so on. Students might also discover their interests from these; they can get many opportunities in country level. It also provides chance to explore the outer world and they can get exercise.
Religion must be taught
Religion can be a positive subject for students to get all religion friendly and it will help they generate respect for every religion. From Buddhism to Islamic, every religion has its own importance and no religion teaches bad so I think it would not have a negative impact. Till present education hasn’t created religion as a subject so there are a lot of debates going about religion. It is only because people have their own thoughts about religion and they create misunderstandings. If religion as a subject gets introduced, people will have knowledge about every religion so it will help in developing peace in world.
Schools should block internet sites
Schools should not allow students to take help from internet in assignments. This might sound a little old concept but I think it will result good. Schools should make students write on their own. Being perfect with the help of internet is not considered perfect. Whether it is right or wrong students should do their works on their own. It will help them develop their creativity and define their abilities. Around the world, students are using electronic devices and they are rather making themselves dull which is my point of view.
Detention is effective
Again considering my school, it has detention classes and I think is doing well. From the fear of detention, students do their works and try becoming a good student. Detention is especially very effective for students who are rude towards school premises. But detention should not only be staying in a room for hours; that would not work. But they should be done something which they will realize for life. They should be given some task that helps them in becoming good. They maybe said to clean the classroom or live tests would work.
Suspensions have negative impact
Suspensions harm more than doing good. Giving students a day off would not work. They will get a chance to have fun the whole day. It is definitely not a punishment. To make a student realize his or her mistake, suspension is not an option. It will also have a negative impact on their academics. Suspension makes a student be more harmful towards a school and after suspension a student can never trust the school and teacher again.
Besides all the good aspects of schooling, I found these were some schooling drawbacks I felt. But in my experience I got the best school to study in. When you are studying in school, you will only think bad about your school. But after graduation, you realize everything; and this just happened to me. Now I realized how much teacher and school work hard to help us with our future. If a school student is reading my article, do respect your teachers and value the school’s efforts.
