An ideal education system
What would be to your mind an ideal education system?A country is weak or powerful, which depends on its education system. Realizing the important role of education in life, Ho Chi Minh, in one of his speeches on education, said: ?For the sake of ten years? benefits, plant trees; for the sake of one hundred years? benefits, educate people.?
An ideal education system must try to carry out the following aims.
First, training human personality both mentally and physically is important. It is said that a sound mind is in a healthy body. The morality and the quality of a man must be the main concern of the Department of Education.
Second, schools must be connected closely with families and society. Schools must always encourage pupils? families to cooperate in educating their children.
Third, the practical side of education must be emphasized. An ideal education system must not be entirely theoretical; on the contrary, theory must be linked up with practice. Besides the cultivation of knowledge for young generations, ideal education must train them to have great capacity and skills so that they are ready to make steady progress in life.
Fourth, society is more and more developed; therefore, textbooks and curriculums must be often supplemented in accordance with present and future needs.
Fifth, training and tempering a passionate love for one?s country in every citizen?s heart, ready to serve their country in peacetime and to fight courageously to protect their fatherland in wartime. The examples of sacrifice of our heroes in the past as well as in the present must be introduced through textbooks in elementary schools.
Sixth, training and forming educators, teachers and professors of good conduct and high quality, teaching and educating students and pupils to hold their teachers in the greatest veneration and respect. Furthering the traditions to respect teachers and esteem morality highly in every class of people.
To sum up, an ideal education is the nucleus of an ideal society.
