Metals have high melting points. Explain, in terms of their structure and bonding, why metals have high melting points

How I would explain this to a student:"It is important to first know what the total marks for each answer is. 2 marks means the examiner requires 2 points. The question also states explain in terms of structure and bonding. Therefore you need to be able to have addressed both these points in your answer. To dive into the answer, if we think about high melting points, we automatically assume STRONG BONDS as STRONG bonds can not easily be broken and require lots of energy. Therefore that already answers the bonding aspect of the question. To hit the high level, we need to now get specific. What bonds are strong? It is the electrostatic force of attraction between the metal cations and the surrounding/delocalised electrons. This second part answers the structure aspect of the question as you have now explained the structure of a metal"
