Broader Bolder Education

Everywhere people are looking for a good education, but the question most pertinent is, “What is a good education?”



Good education is an education that makesa good human being
a good member of a family
a good member of a community
a good citizen of a country
a good citizen of the world

The three schools of humanity—home, school and community—all have a measure of responsibility towards providing every child with a good education. Every effort needs to be made to inspire ‘every child’ to become both ‘good and smart’,  or ‘good’ before ‘smart’.  

This is because at the margin it matters more that a person be good and possess many human virtues and values than that s / he is smart but lacks these virtues and values. The world needs more caring and compassion, and not more competition.
