Schools should take better measures to ensure students’ awareness of their physical and mental health. I disagree with this viewpoint, as schools already provide enough health education, and requiring them to do more can cause over-dependence and loss of interest among learners.
While educational institutions provide basic health knowledge, students should be able to take further steps by themselves. Otherwise, they may struggle with independent decision-making about their health in the future. For example, if institutions offer constant guidance, learners adapt to it, and as a result, they may become unable to take charge of simple habits, such as regular exercising or a healthy diet. Therefore, health education should remain balanced, encouraging students to take initiative.
Furthermore, excessive information about healthcare may turn out to be boring. High pressure on educational programs adds even more academic stress to students, leaving them overwhelmed. When health topics are constantly emphasized in addition to core subjects, learners might begin to view them as just another obligation, rather than something meaningful. As a result, instead of being motivated to take care of themselves, students may become disengaged.
In conclusion, I disagree with the idea of changing the current educational system, as the foundational responsibility lies not on the schools but on the students, and implementing health education into learning process can lead to underperformance.
