Formal education in my country doesnt impair me for my future

life.

In my opinion this is a debatable statement. I believe that

schools have always had two major purposes to serve: to educate
citizens and to process them into roles for economic production.
To accomplish them, schools have the role of supplying students
with information and with learning skills and to guide them to
make steps leading to predictable, marketable credentials for the
workplace.

In Romania, the provision of information, much of which is

theoretical, is well done but, as far as the learning skills are
concerned there is a marked lack. What is more, there is a limited
range of extracurricular activities through which students may
learn skills such as creative thinking, leadership, team spirit,
resourcefulness, adaptability and other, that will help them later
on both in their profession and in their private life. One more point
that Id like to change for the better is students counselling and
guidance in project enrolment. If students were guided and
encouraged to enrol in various projects they would acquire new
skills like initiative-taking, decision making, competitiveness that
would make them highly targeted on the market.
