Why should modern society receive education?
From a personal point of view, education is a channel for individuals to accumulate rich knowledge and improve their self-cultivation, a prerequisite for achieving long-term and stable development in the future, and a necessary condition for the formation, revision and realization of personal ideals. The difference of early individual education directly determines his own personality, character, endowment and the degree of potential development, which lays the foundation for his life. The education that individuals receive in the middle and late period is a means to enrich and accumulate experience and deepen their understanding of the world. In a word, education plays a vital role in personal growth.

From the social point of view, education is an important activity to maintain social stability and close social ties. Receiving education means the improvement of ability, and the improvement of ability actively or passively determines the aggravation of social responsibility. The higher a person's education, the greater his sense of social responsibility. For example, newborn babies hardly need to bear any social responsibility; Supporting parents is the obligation of every adult; The lifeblood of the national economy will only be in the hands of high-quality talents, not in the hands of farmers. Therefore, the social responsibilities created by education are interrelated and intertwined into a huge social responsibility network, which is the foundation of long-term social stability.

From a national perspective, education is an investment in human resources. With the further development of economic globalization, international affairs tend to be complicated and diversified, and the competition in the contemporary world is more reflected in the competition of human resources. One of the main purposes of the state to vigorously develop education is to improve citizens' scientific and cultural literacy and moral quality, so as to be in a favorable position in the increasingly fierce international competition, continuously inject new vitality into social life, and promote the continuous innovation and development of various undertakings of the national economy and people's livelihood.
