Hey there, I want to know if the punctuation marks I have used in these sentences are correctly placed. And if the underlined sentences and clauses show any grammatical error.

Education has been a standout amongst the most vital conditions; for a person to get by in this world. Being vital and important to our lives despite everything, we ought to concur that not every person in our society could stand to have simple knowledge.


Questions:

1. Should 'knowledge' be preceded by an article?

2. Is it right to place this clause "Being vital and important to our lives despite everything" where it is? Does it sound a little weird? Is it conveying its meaning properly?
