The influence of school education on people's physical and mental development is comprehensive and systematic, and good school education plays a leading role in individual's physical and mental development. However, the leading role of school education can only be realized under certain conditions, and it cannot play an infinite role.
First of all, school education has a purpose. School is a place to train people. Because all kinds of educational activities in the school are carried out in an artificially set environment, meaningful and planned activities are carefully designed by teachers, so the purpose and significance of school education are very strong. Secondly, school education is professional and systematic. School education not only has special teaching places and full-time educators, but also has carefully selected and systematic subject knowledge system, educational methods and educational means, so school education has a strong professionalism; At the same time, because the cultivation of people is a complex systematic project, school education is very systematic.
Third, school education is fundamental. The purpose of school education is to teach children and teenagers the most basic knowledge and skills, the moral norms necessary for social life and the norms of social interpersonal relations. In the most fundamental sense, all kinds of education at all levels are teaching individuals the basic knowledge of survival and life in life, doing things and learning. Therefore, school education has a strong foundation.
Finally, school education is highly selective. The influence of social environment is complex and diverse, and the influence of school education on individuals is selective. The selectivity of school education is mainly manifested in the selectivity of educational training objectives, teaching content and educational methods and means. It can be seen that school education is not blind and random, and the environment, content and methods of education are all selected, so we can eliminate some bad factors and adhere to positive education, so as to better promote the healthy development of people's body and mind.
