Agree or disagree? The prime function of schooling should be to equip the future generation to find jobs?

Do you agree or disagree with the statement that the primary purpose of education should be to prepare future generations for employment? In today's rapidly changing job market, it is crucial to consider whether schools should primarily focus on equipping students with the skills needed for various careers, or if they should also emphasize critical thinking, creativity, and social development. What are your thoughts on this balance?

The prime function is of schooling is to maintain the social order. Not necessarily to teach individuals to be creative or independent thinkers. so I guess i would disagree with you. The purpose shouldn’t be to help people find jobs, it should be to help people develop their own passions and skills so then that purpose could use that same passion and skill to make a career or living out of it.
