✓ But if someone wants to focus mainly on studies, I think my school is one of the best institutions for him or her to go to.

The original sentence has a structure error with 'if someone who wanted'; it should be 'if someone wants' to form a correct conditional sentence in the present tense.

× The environment was generally relaxed in my school because there were a lot of extracurricular activities and there wasn't any pressure to study on the students, and my teachers used to give very less homework to the students, so it was very chill and relaxed.

✓ The environment is generally relaxed in my school because there are a lot of extracurricular activities and there isn't any pressure to study on the students, and my teachers give very little homework to the students, so it is very chill and relaxed.

The question 'What is the environment like at your school?' is in the present tense, so the answer should be in the present tense to describe the current environment. Also, 'very less' is incorrect; 'very little' is the correct quantifier for uncountable nouns like 'homework'.

× my teachers used to give very less homework to the students

✓ my teachers give very little homework to the students

'Homework' is an uncountable noun, so 'very less' is incorrect. The correct quantifier is 'very little'.

× It is very important for a student to have interest in study because otherwise they might not be able to concentrate fully in the class as well as in their home, and not having interest in study can lead to failure in the class.

✓ It is very important for a student to have interest in study because otherwise they may not be able to concentrate fully in the class as well as at home, and not having interest in study can lead to failure in the class.

The modal verb 'might' is acceptable but 'may' is more formal here. Also, 'in their home' should be 'at home' as the correct preposition for location. The rest is correct.
