Last week, I had an opportunity to discuss with my friend about the importance of education in our human life. After a short time, my friend enquired about the reason for the recent clash between lawyers and policemen in my local town. After a brief discussion, he queried, “It seems lawyers and policemen are one of the highly acclaimed personalities in society, yet, they behave like laymen, by disturbing the life of common people. Education doesn’t influence their character and personality.”
After small discussion, we put forth various aspects, by which education in India could change to influence life of humans.
1. Moral education should be made imperative at every levels of learning. “Basic values of integrity” during childhood and “Pragmatic way of living with integrity” during adolescence and adulthood should be inculcated to citizens.
2. “Philosophy of success,” should be imparted to every individual after maturity in thinking.
3. Education should impart intelligence to differentiate “Spirituality” over “Religion.”
4. Education should help individual to identify their priorities in life.
5. Education should promote holistic understanding of living and universal brotherhood.
6. In every curriculum, complete life history of world fame personalities should be made compulsory.
After identifying these pivotal points, another friend listening to our conversation queried: “It seems your education demands intellectual or personality development as an important factor, but, today’s information revolution requires vast time schedule for technical learning. How your education is going to balance your intellectual and technical knowledge?”
My friend replied with radiance in his words, “If foundations are laid with perfection, massive top constructions can be easily designed with dedication.”

Hey I agree that education has an immense impact on the human society. The earlier education system was different from today’s education system. Our quality of education has been improved as we are living in a world of technology. The development of a country depends upon its educational system. Any kind of development is possible through education. Quality education is what we all desire .Today most of the parents are completely aware of educational importance and they do everything to provide best education to their children. So they look for a school that provides the education, which involves innovative way of teaching. Inventure Academy is one such schools that I have heard about.
My daughter goes to Inventure Academy. I chose the school specifically due to their mix of traditional and modern education. For the fact that kids are not only given the text books , but been asked to use them as GUIDES….and ask questions, not just read and accept. Their teaching methodology is something i wanted for my daughter. She used to be a very quite child, and i was always afraid she may not like school, but i was mistaken. She has taken to school and her classmates so smoothly. They sit together and discuss things, learn about each other and how diverse aeach and every kid is in that circle itself. I feel it's very important to interact with various different people too as part of education.
