Goals of Education

The goals of education can be formulated only in the light of the needs of society for which the education is meant. Education constitutes the curriculum and the teaching techniques, or in simple words—what we teach and how we teach. Difference in social and political institutions will determine different purposes of education. The ends of education will be different with totalitarian, theocratic and democratic societies.

Importance of Aims and Objectives

The importance of aims and objectives of education is recognised by all the educational, professional, political, nonpolitical and religious associations, organisations and groups at various levels in their memoranda, letters and brochures. It is said that education without clear cut aims is like a rudderless ship.
