The Person in Education
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 August 2024
Extract
The title of this address may sound to you a little tough and abstract, yet it is a good subject for this afternoon’s meeting because you are all parents, and each parent has a Person, often several persons, your children, in whom you are deeply interested, and for whose welfare and education you are personally responsible, since God has chosen you to co-operate with him in bringing them into being, and in preparing them for their independent lire as persons in the world.
Now I am not a parent and it would be impertinent for me to try to teach you your job as parents in detail. What I want to do this afternoon is to remind you of certain basic principles underlying the true notion of education. Principles are important; without them we can never really understand any problem, and this is a problem it is supremely important to understand thorghly.
