I like to have the stats about the chances of me bumping and greeting Octavia.:

I think First-aid would have been something useful to teach to all.
The primary purpose of the secondary school that I attended was to give employment to persons (teachers) who would otherwise be unemployable.
These teachers having basic first-aid knowledge would also have been helpful.
I recall an incident at school where a girl in my class broke her leg in the playground – she was walked up two flights of stairs to the first-aid room (and that was by the teacher who was the first-aider). I could recount numerous other similar incidents throughout my school years.
I would not let the teachers at my old school to look after my dog – let alone my child.

Suggestions above seem good, but to be honest nothing really springs to mind for me. Even most of the above suggestions aren't the sort of academic subjects I think are the school's remit. I'd go along with philosophy though. It's something I've half-heartedly tried to learn on my own a few times since leaving.
My issues with school were foolish attempts to prevent folk taking all the sciences and effectively forcing me to take a waste-of-time subject. I tend to be charitable and try to believe it was down to timetabling problems, but I've yet to convince myself.

Nothing.
My school taught me everything I expected them to (and a lot I did not). It provided a wide range of options all of which I couldn't possibly take up. It took me to my chosen subjects at 'O' Level and to a narrower range in more depth to 'A' Level. As well as that it encouraged me to be inquisitive and self-reliant and gave me the confidence to tackle the world. It also gave me the ability to continue to learn throughout my life. Could not have wished for anything better.
