Thanks. Really interesting article! I wish school in germany was more like this.

I especially like that they value music, Art, Sport and this hobby subject more. Its so true that -while the knowledge itself is not needed in many Jobs- you do learn a lot of softskills. I never understood why we cut these subjects More and More. And i was not even a big fan of Art and Sport at the tine.

It depends, I wish the students would have more freedom of choice.

Like I hated doing Sports class but liked when we had the gym - but we couldn't choose that, it was just assigned each term.

Likewise for choosing subjects, as soon as I could I studied only science and mathematics. I really liked Music before too, but being forced to do Art and English poetry (in England) was horrible, I'm terrible at Art and never cared for poetry - or for the assigned literature compared to what I would just read myself.

Stuff like that just makes people hate school and not want to take part.
