Some people say that subjects like arts, music, drama and creative writing are more
beneficial to children and therefore they need more of these subjects to be included in the timetable. Do you agree or disagree?

Arts have little or no place in the educational curriculum so far because we have a feeling
that time spent on these things is time wasted. Recent studies, however, have shown that a
good curriculum that includes arts education can have multiple benefit
s which I shall
highlight in this essay.
The most important benefit of arts in schools is that it contributes to making a well rounded
student. Not only that, certain forms of arts instruction enhance and complement academic
skills such as basic reading sk
ills, language development and writing skills. So, children do
well in other subjects also.
Another big advantage is that it encourages the pursuit of extra
–
curricular activities.
Children get a chance to show their creative expression. When such hidden ab
ilities are
exposed in school time then those with exceptional talent can be encouraged to adopt it as
a profession later
–
on in life. It is a well known fact that people in such professions are
earning telephone figure salaries nowadays.
Last but not leas
t, such subjects are stress
–
busters. In the highly competitive era of today,
pressure of academic subjects is too high. Arts like music, drama and creative writing break
the monotony of tough academic studies.
To put it in a nutshell, I pen down saying
that our educational curriculum needs a serious
revision and more of such subjects need to be added to the school curriculum. They
complement academic study, bring out hidden talent and break the ennui of tough
academic studies
