Sport v Education

Persuasive Starter

Which is more important, sport or education? The answer is simple! Education increases your chances of becoming wealthy, leads to better jobs and enhances our ability to think critically.

Do you want to be rich? Well the chances of you doing that through sport are slim. Less than 2% of children who want to be professional athletes actually make it to the ‘big time’. This is in contrast to other professions. Your chances of making it as a doctor or lawyer are far greater, and therefore you have a greater chance of becoming rich and buying the most opulent possessions!
