In Greece schools are closed for Christmas and the New Year from 12/24-1/8, but the official holiday break for those who work is only 3 days within this period. Merry Christmas to you!

Some people think that parents should teach children how to be good members of society. Others,however,believe that school is the place to learn this.
Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

Education plays an important role in the process of children to becoming good members of society.(The issues who will take the main responsibility,parents or school,is of great significance to the public).The question regarding main responsibility, whether of  parents or  school, is of great significance to most people.
It is reasonable t Some people reasonably argue that parents should teach children how to be members of society.In the first place,as we all know,parents are the first teachers in our childhood, the ones who teach us how to speak,how to walk,even how to use a knife and pforks,that is to say,they should teach us how to be good members of society as well.Apart from that,children spend most of their time with their parents in their family.They have dinner together,watch television together, go shopping together.There are a is plenty of time can be used available for parents to teach children how to be good members of society.For example,when a child gogoes  to the supermarket with his parents for some shopping by car,he can be taught to obey the traffic rules,stand in a line for payment or even share the values of other customers.In a word,he can be taught to be a good member of society anywhere and anytime with his parents' help.
On the other hand, some people believe that children should learn how to be good members of society at school.Teachers can teach students some rules of the society and students can learn the social rules from peers as well.Although school is a really a good place to learn this for children to learn this ,I think it`s not enough.Firth First of all, school is a place to require acquire knowledge.There are too many classes and too little time for learning to be good members of society.Moreover,most of the knowledge about how to be a good member of society is out of thecomes from textbooks, so it`s unreasonable to learn it from textbook in theory only.Last but not least, because there are too many students at school,however,few teachers can give them guidelines one by one.
To sum up, having considered the respective merits and drawbacks of both views,I`m inclined to agree with the former point of view as children can profit enormously from the parenting. Also, I would also suggest that teachers should pay more attention on to the cultivation of society (social) rules for students.Parenting and schooling can actually go hand in hand.

 

You have mentioned both arguments but the input material indicates a fairly limited range of vocabulary and there is a lot of repitition. You have a range of structures but there are errors in grammar which however do not cause too many problems to the reader. Are you opting for an overall IELTS score of 7? If so, this composition with a few modifications and corrections would probably be a band 6.

Because in Am.E although the past participle form of the verb "get" is "gotten", you cannot use it in the sense of possession. In your example here the meaning is that the speaker has (possession) the power and this is where AmE doesn't allow the past participle "gotten".
