    Formal education tends to restrict thinking and limit creativity. It focuses students solely on achieving good grades, placing pressure on them and discouraging independent thought. By emphasizing test scores over practical knowledge, the system produces graduates who can only operate within narrow parameters set by their education. For individuals and society to reach their full potential, the education system needs reform that encourages learning outside of textbooks and focuses less on grades. Students' future paths should be determined by interests and skills rather than test scores from early education.

    Conventional Education system is making people thinking


    narrower and restricting the spirits to achieve instead of setting it
    free. Formal education system is helpful in gaining the basic
    knowledge that is needed by any student yet it restricts by what the
    teachers are going to teach. With the formal education knowledge is
    very much restricted to the figures in the books and the pressure of
    being to achieve both the parents and teachers make them feel
    stress and further depressing the spirits. With the same continuation
    even in the higher grades are successful making them to unable to
    think out of books. So, formal education that we are following are
    restricting our minds.
    To learn in the classroom with all the students in the formal
    education system is good but the pressure given by the parents and
    teachers are making students to focus only in the books just to
    achieve the grades. Even some students are falling in a loop that
    achieving the grades itself is the achievement instead of learning
    the reality and restricting themselves to the books. Even the worst
    thing that is happening is current grades will be deciding what they
    have to choose in further higher studies.
    Sometimes it doesnt even end in just achieving the grades, in
    order to get into the profession in higher education students have to
    pass through some tests again conducted by the universities or they
    may be dependent on the grades what they got previously which
    again make them focus on just to achieve the grades.

    After all the way the students getting restricted to the bookish
    knowledge that is going to be reflected even after the completing
    his/her education. Because of the formal education restricting the
    thoughts people are merely just doing the job based on what it has
    been taught by his/her teachers earlier and for those teachers by
    their teachers, which is making students thoughts narrower. This is
    going to be continued even for the next generations unless this
    formal education system is broken and gave importance to the
    practical knowledge.
    By seeing the things above formal education system need to
    be changed and the education system should give importance to
    gain knowledge out of box(books) instead of merely getting the
    grades which increasing the pressure on the students. The further
    studies for the students should not dependent on the current grades
    rather than his work on that field. The education system during the
    early stages of the students will have an great impact on the
    students entire career and also on the growth of the field. To make
    this change it should be at the very nascent stage.

    Issue essay: unexamined conservatism is far more dangerous than


    the reckless change.
    Following our traditions are very important giving respect to
    our ancestors. But with the change in the time and place those
    methods and rules may not hold true. Still trying to follow the same
    conventional methods may have impact in long-term. We need to
    examine our own traditions periodically and adapt to the conditions
    that are there, instead of blindly following the harmful ones.
