Abstract

A socially and emotionally aware society will prepare its children for living by creating learning environments that enable them to move with confidence from the small family group into larger work-oriented or recreational groups. It will design schools to facilitate this process, paying particular attention to the need to create group sizes that are optimal for different kinds of learning. It will not uniformly apply an industrial assembly line model to the process of education. Every school should provide every pupil with a sense of belonging and with a positive view of self-worth. Every pupil should share in high quality experiences which promote intellectual, social and emotional development.
