Mine is that schools should teach more non academic subjects like car mechanics. Things like history aren't relevant to a lot of students, so broaden the curriculum by teaching them things they'll engage with.

Yes, absolutely agree. Sorry I've not been clear, I've seen subjects seen as irrelevant lead to core group young people with poor engagement dropping out of school. Teach it alongside more practical options to facilitate overall engagement
