Thoughts For The Times
Moulding the Bkitish Citizen. “In short the aim of education in Britain can not be vocational'—it must be nothing less.than a preparation for the whole of life. If you followed my brief summary of the machinery of education you will have noticed the strqss laid both in primary and secondary schools upoq the English language, English literature, geography and history ,with, in the later stages, some science and some knowledge of at- least one other country. You wll have noticed ,too, the drawing, the music, singing at nil events, and games —games for character, organised games'for teamwork. All directed towards the making of the citizen.”—Sir Auckland Geddes.
