Some people think secondary school students should learn international news as
one of their subjects, while others believe that this is a waste of valuable time.
Discuss both views and give your own opinion
It is claimed that international news should be added into the curriculums of
secondary schools. While some people advocate this, I hold a contrary opinion on
this matter.
There are some people who are in favour of making international news a
compulsory subject in the curriculum of secondary schools. As the world becomes
more open, it would be more necessary than ever before for children to know
about what is happening in the world. However, the effectiveness of this practice
should be carefully considered because secondary students are often too young
to understand news, and they tend to forget the information once the exam is
over.
On the other hand, teaching secondary school children about world news would
mean that they have less time to learn about core subjects such as Maths and
Physics, which are proved to be more important to their education. Furthermore,
international news could be soon out of date, even before curriculums are
completed. Therefore, news that children learn is actually stale, and this can be
viewed as a waste of time.
Of course, I do not imply that teenagers should be isolated from international
news. On the contrary, I suggest that secondary school children can access a great
source of information through the internet and television, provided that they find
it helpful. However, this does not mean that educators should include
international news in the school curriculums.
In conclusion, I tend to believe that international news should not be considered
to be a subject at the level of secondary educati
