Learning a second language is a vital life skill as well as being a very important job skill. Yes, langagues need to be taught in schools and I'd like to see more money spent on language education in schools.

Yes, I think other languages should be in schools, I am currently learning Japanese at school and not only Is it interesting and fun but it could help me greatly if I wanted to be a translator, journalist or something, I say all schools need the opportunity and maybe just let students who aren't interested do an extra elective or learning class or something

There are tens of hundreds of languages out there, and I don't think it should be mandatory that a student should learn a second language. It should be completely optional. Knowing your native language is good enough, especially if we're talking English, also known as the most complex language in today's society. Not even a "Grammar Nazi" such as myself has fully mastered the art yet.
