If there is one thing that makes or breaks an individual, it is his education. Schools, where children study, learn, and prepare for life, therefore need to provide the right kind of environment so that students can get a proper education.

Students are taught languages, mathematics, science, history, and a number of other subjects in school. They get to participate in sports activities, socialize with their peers, and learn how to adapt themselves in different social situations. However, an impediment in the path of child development at schools, comes by way of the various social issues that plague our education system. Let us take a look at what these issues are in the following section.

eduacation       ADVANTAGES OF EDUCATION

Education is the most powerful weapon in any kind of situation. In fact, pen and pencil are much stronger than gun and knife. Do you agree with me? Yes, you should do.

The direction in which education starts a person will determine his/her future in life. Some students are not taking education as a serious matter. Those who never study hard at their early stage will suffer a lot in their future life.

1. You Will Get Respect From Everyone, Everywhere

Respect is one of the greatest treasures of everyone’s life. Education is one of the most powerful keys which make others respect you. If you are an educated person, you will get respect from everyone and everywhere. Of course, society gives respect to rich people as well, but could not expect that from everywhere. When you meet a person at very the first time, they won’t ask you how much money you have, but they will ask you what are you doing? In this situation the person who asked you estimate you with your profession. If you want to be in a good profession you need to study well. So it is very easy to say that the education brings others to respect you.

2.Get Employment Anywhere

We are here for only money and in order to make money, we must be in a good job. Nowadays even graduated students struggling to find a job. So how an uneducated person find a job in the current situation?

Education is very much needed in order to move to your next step. If you have a degree or diploma or any other certificate programs, you will get a job anywhere, not immediately but definitely. If you don’t have any certificate or experience who willing to offer a job? Only you can start your own business or do some odd jobs throughout your whole life. In Asia, even you can’t find any odd jobs without education. So think about the advantages of education in your life.

3.Time Management And Money Management

Time management and money management are two of the essential tools in day to day life. If you follow these two techniques, your life will be awesome for sure. But without education, it’s hard to handle time management and money management techniques. These two powerful tools make your life easy and smooth. If you read the story of any successful person in the world, you will get to know the importance of time and money management. I’m 100% sure that none of the people will succeed in their life without these two powerful techniques. But the truth is you can’t follow these two techniques without an education background.

SOCIAL ISSUES THAT AFFECT EDUCATION

Poverty

 

Gender Issues

Another social issue in education is the differential treatment provided on the basis of gender. In certain sections of the society, girls are provided lesser opportunities for studying, in comparison to boys. Expectations from girls to score high in studies or study further are less as well.

Economic Issues
Some social issues arise due to the economic strata a student belongs to. Students who belong to poor families are most likely to attend public schools. These schools are, however, not as well equipped with technology as private schools. This then automatically puts them at a disadvantage when compared to other students who go to private schools.
Cultural Issues
Students belonging to immigrant families, may not be well versed with the English language. This creates a barrier in communication between students and teachers and thus, such students are not able to receive proper education.
Ethical Issues
There are certain other ethical issues in education which affect students. For example, whether to allow cell phones in school or not, should school uniforms be made compulsory, etc.
