School prepared us for real life? School education is compulsory. But will it help us in the future? School age - the required period in the life of each, during which we have to gain some experience for your future life. But when it comes to readiness for adulthood, it turns out that we still need to learn a lot, which you don’t know when you attend school. We do not learn a lot of really necessary things: time management, modern etiquette, correct understanding of the situation. On the other hand the school depersonalizes, for example it is difficult for a teacher to find an individual approach to a specific child in a class of about 30 people. There is a lot of knowledge that many simply do not need. In school, children usually arrive at the age of 6-7 years. This is an environment different from the familiar to the child's home. The first thing we are taught in school is independence. For you, no one will do the task that the teacher gave. Secondly, you need to communicate well with classmates. This ability to communicate with people and work in groups is very useful. Moreover, the school pays more attention to the behavior of children than in kindergarten. It teaches such necessary discipline and responsibility. We also learn to say what we think. And other very important things: count, write, history, geography, etc. A school is a small model of the world, only a fraction of which is real. If a person will gain knowledge only at school and will not expanded his horizons in any other way, then this really will not help in real life.
