The educational theory put forward by British materialist philosopher Locke in his masterpiece "Random Talk on Education". Gentleman's educational thought is one of the three major educational thoughts in modern Europe, which has had a great influence on British school education. On the one hand, the theoretical root of gentleman education comes from empirical materialism epistemology and bourgeois utilitarian ethics, on the other hand, it comes from liberal religious view and social contract theory. The goal of gentleman education is to cultivate all kinds of social activists and entrepreneurs who are healthy and psychologically sound, that is, gentlemen. Locke proposed that a gentleman should have four qualities: morality, intelligence, courtesy and learning. This reflects the demand for elite talents in the process of social modernization in Britain, which is the educational ideal of the upstart British bourgeoisie and also the dominant concept of public education and teaching at that time. The theme of "gentleman education" is: a gentleman should be aristocratic, active in the upper class and political arena, enterprising in his career, and be a practical talent for developing bourgeois economy; A gentleman wants physical education, moral education and intellectual education.
