I was thinking, there are tonnes of skills in life I've had to teach myself, which could (and probably should) have been covered briefly at school. Or at least, it would have been helpful.
How parliament, elections and the government all work should be taught in late primary school or early secondary school I think. So they all get at least a basic understanding of politics.
They should also be taught much more about the environment and British countryside, including a lot more school trips.
Proper practical life skills such as finance, how to cook properly, how to do household chores, essay writing, better careers advice, better healthy lifestyle advice e.t.c
Im not sure i agree with those 2. With the dress sense and style, everyone has their own dress style etc. No one else should be able to change that. And how does learning about football help people in life.

I meant more like which colours suit you, how to choose what to wear and stuff like that. To this day I have no idea if what I wear actually suits me. Probably not though.
Football is a (quite complex) national sport, that should be justification enough, if any is needed (though I suspect the OP doesn't need any). I also suspect teaching football tactics properly has similar benefits to chess etc.
They should teach more basic human body stuff. Every person should know how to refer to their body. Its shocking how little medicine and anatomy is taught to people. How can you expect to go through life without knowing your body?
It'd be nice if they taught people how to recognize emergency illnesses in school rather than have them posted on billboards or on a pamphlet at a gp surgery. They complain about symptom to hospital time for things like strokes and heart attacks, I think teaching this stuff in school will reduce that time.

Especially as GPs tend to be so pants these days. Mine has told me all kinds of wild stories recently! But thankfully most of my friends are doctors.
