Because of the choices we had to make at school I dropped Geography and Biology and joked for years that I didn’t know what I was or where I was. But the idea that there are things we have to learn in order to be employable has always jarred with my sense of freedom and what it actually means to be educated.
I think everyone should learn about their bodies and nutrition. It would seem to me to be a fundamental of knowing how to lead one’s life that one should know how to be healthy. And I think we should all learn how to prepare our meals. I see the aisle in the markets of ready-meals and am truly appalled at what people will eat. All because they actually have no idea what they are being fed.
Far more important than sport.
