Often it seems that education a person acquires from his own family is more significant than education he gains from school. I can neither support nor oppose the statement as both these types of education are distinct in nature.

 Turning to the type of education which an individual gets from his family, the focus is on the person’s character formation. To be clearer, a child learns basic discipline at his home, which is vital in his future life. Moral education, which is pivotal in today’s life, is not better taught elsewhere other than in a person’s family. Similarly, some essential skills too are taught from the family like cooking and grooming, which can help to create a platform of his career, if he is really interested in.

On the other hand, an individual’s education at school is focused more on academic lessons. To be precise, a student who joins a school receives systematic formal training, on various subjects and this training lays the foundation of a person’s career perspectives. For example, if a school student is interested in Biology, he might opt for medicine or related professions in his future. In fact, it can be said that school education is the real key to secure a good job in a person’s life.

 After analysing both perspectives, it is clear that both types of education are very much significant for any individual, but are beneficial for him in different circumstances.
