Male Female

I don't think it's compulsory for everyone to attend the school nearest to their home. Because, ultimately, it's not the distance that matters, but the quality of education. So, if you have a school nearby that's not a good school, then you're better off choosing another school. I don't think people should prioritize proximity to their home as a compulsory requirement. However, if you have a good school with good teaching near your home, then that's a different story. Having a school near your home does have some minor advantages, such as saving time on travel. Apart from that, I don't see any other benefits to attending a school near your home. But, of course, saving time is still a significant advantage.
