How does education shapes one’s personality?

 Education is an integral part of a human’s life, for it is not restricted only to the confinements of an infrastructural building named, school. Education goes beyond that and seeps into the minds of people for years over. Education starts the minute a human takes birth into the life and begins to actively learn from the surroundings. As intrinsic as education is in shaping our personality it is also very imperative in sculpturing our minds over a time without us being consciously aware of the effect of education. Schools offer more than just educating a child but developing his and her whole personality into a contemporary one. Preparing a child into a mature being for further life is extremely important because the experience and learning that a child attains and encapsulates comes from either his or her schooling or either from the teachings of their parents or perhaps, both.

Having said that, school offers its students various facilities and opportunities to hone as well as learn new skills that otherwise a students would not have gotten a chance to do so. Shaping and moulding is a part of the process of learning and acquiring new skills. Learning process is so much parallel to the art of pottery – It leads the way gradually through shaping, breaking and moulding; it at last eventually acquires its own shape.

Education has been for ages now aiding in the shaping of a person’s personality. A person graduates and completes his higher studies but the learning goes on for life long, making the personality and mind of a person take various shapes just like water – it takes the shape of the vessel it adheres to.

A good school is one that increases the potential of a students and makes the students realise their innate abilities, skills and inherent talents and further help these students hone the skills they discovered through their active participation in every event – academic, creative or otherwise.

Education can often be confused as a substitution of indoctrination, which is a part of education but not the whole, for indoctrination stands for uncritical teaching of beliefs to students whereas education as a whole achieves to attain the goal of strengthening individual personality and thinking of a person. It aims at making every student unique in his or her abilities and the way they perform their skill which holds an intrinsic value to what personality means. Pacific World School in Noida Extension aims at achieving the same for students and perhaps more because it provides more to the students than what an ordinary school does. It allows the customization of education which very rarely schools do and apparently customization of education according to the aptitude of the child has proven to be more successful than the age-old concept and way of education.
