School curriculum provides everything that an average teenager should know about adult life? Do you agree with it?


School is a place of knowledge. We learn several things from school. The knowledge and understanding we receive from school is numerous, and so it is correct when one says that school curriculum provides everything that an average teenager should know about adult life. I support this statement due to several reasons.
School curriculum provides us several subjects. Each subject is unique and has different types of occupations related to it. An average teenager would have enough information about each subject and respective fields. Then he can choose wisely his profession and also have a background about other subjects.
A student will learn to do several tasks i.e. multitasking at school. Adults really require this specific skill to balance their work, family, social life and finances. Within a school, teenagers are provided with several tasks like projects and essays all together, so this adds to the development of multitasking. This technique also aids in time management skills. This knowledge is not provided yet developed in teenagers due to the school curriculum.
Competition is another aspect a teenager learns within school boundaries and outside also. Tests, ranks and rewards make him compete more as adults always face competition.
A teenager can be totally independent in his work because he doesn’t get help from his parents when in school and teachers help only to a certain extent. This ensures the student uses his full potential to be what he wants to be.
My opponents might say that even after such a curriculum there are so many evils in society. Well for them, I can say that a bad man will be bad with or without school. School tries its best to avoid such happenings by punishments. To prevent those acts a school also provides information related to the harmful effects of evils in the society, but it is impossible to stop a person from committing a crime if that thought us in his mind. 
My opponents may even say that so many talents are overlooked these days. It’s not just the school that is responsible for it. A school tries its level best to try and arrange as many extra curricula activities and competitions, so that more students are motivated and inspired to join.  Teachers may even force the students but he himself should display his talent. The ones, who show out their talents, reveal their hidden talents and also become very courageous.
Thus I support that school curriculum provides enough  scope for a student to learn and grow in such a way that he is prepared for adult life. After all, the curriculum was designed with lots of care and accuracy as per the students’ mental calibre.

  1. The essay is quite appealing, however specific points did not reflect on the criteria. Based on its argumentative agenda, I would suggest that a bit more of an argument should be considered. The essay did consist of a bit of a discursive setting and could use a bit more work to stay on topic. As for grammar, more connectives and figures of speech should be used. I would give it a 5/10.
