1. The relative independence of education means that education has its own unique development law and initiative, which is manifested in its own stipulation. Because of the particularity of the object of education, education has its own stipulation. The purpose of this regulation is to cultivate people, which is mainly manifested in the imbalance between education and productivity, the development of political and economic systems, and also in the inheritance of educational development itself, which is embodied in the inheritance of educational content, educational methods, educational theories and educational experiences.
2. Education is a social activity to cultivate people. The problem it wants to solve is to transform the accumulated experience of production struggle and social life into the personal spiritual wealth of the educated and form the personality of the educated, which is the unique feature of education. The process of education is the process of reforming activities.
3. Education can't be produced out of thin air without social material conditions, but at the same time it is developed from previous education, all of which are related to previous education. It is precisely because of this inheritance that countries with the same level of economic system and productivity development will have different educational characteristics, and the education of different nationalities will show different traditions and characteristics.
