We need specialized teachers for sports, music and art

Everyone agrees to the fact that education is all about the overall development of an individual। Students, parents and most importantly educational institutions usually suggest that a truly educated person must possess some special skills and talents in fields such as sports, art, music or dramatics। But when we look closely at the teaching staff of some of the most prestigious schools, we hardly find any specialized teachers for sports, art and .

Schools have specialized teachers for one of these fields but lack the rest whereas some schools don't have any of these teachers at all and yet have no qualms claiming to be the best school of their locality. Isn't it the responsibility of schools to provide their students with good teachers to develop their hidden talents? Should the principals, who emphasize that overall development of children is imperative, not provide such facilities to students under one roof?

In the scarcity of such facilities at school, students have to resort to taking extra classes outside to hone their skills of interest। This cuts their time on academics as well as other activities of interest and recreation at home. When the temples of learning fail to provide all necessary aids for learning, students go out in search of other sacred places to learn and in the process waste a significant amount of resources, time and money.

Having all learning infrastructure under one roof definitely saves precious time.

obviously, if we donot have experts in the fields of arts and music n all. how can we rejuvenate the spirits of students! as such they are also very looked upon professions, but the fact is that this is the change we need!
