Description

Behind every school system, educational approach and practice, there is a philosophy based on the views and values of the educators, as well as the society that is sponsoring the education. The philosophy starts with the view of reality and definitions of truth and goodness. From this, the mission and goals of education (and schools) and the emphasis of the instruction (given in schools or classrooms) are defined and established. The various philosophies are based on a view of society and what is important, as well as political beliefs to a degree.
