Whether it be a \u2018<strong>best primary school<\/strong>, \u2018<strong>best middle school<\/strong>, or \u2018<strong>best high school<\/strong>, when we use the term \u201c<strong>best<\/strong>\u201d for any level of the school, it is not only academic excellence that is taken into consideration. It is holistic education and excellence that we consider. This kind of school education fosters child growth and development, and so\u00a0<strong>formal schooling<\/strong>\u00a0is what we are talking about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">First of all, what is child growth and development? Why is it important?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.academicheights.in\/blog\/factors-that-affect-growth-and-development-in-children\/\">Child growth and development<\/a>&nbsp;<\/strong>involves the physical, intellectual, emotional, and social advancement of a child. It is crucial to lay a strong foundation for your child. If your child has a strong foundation, your child does not only have well-being in every aspect of life but also has the courage to rise above everything challenging that life has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now,\u00a0<strong>formal schooling<\/strong>\u00a0has a very important role to play in the positive growth and development of your child. But the questions you might be wondering are\u2014how and why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How does formal schooling promote child growth and development?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>&nbsp;CBSE schools<\/strong>, and also other boards for that matter, recognize the importance of the holistic well-being of children. Due to this, schools conduct various extracurricular activities throughout an&nbsp;<strong>academic<\/strong>&nbsp;session. This is to say, schools are more than&nbsp;<strong>academics<\/strong>. They are going beyond textbook learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Schools are not only places where children go to study and secure high marks in different subjects. Schools are also places where children make friends, learn multiple skills, and engage in problem-solving and collaborative activities. Every school prepares children for the \u201c<strong>real world<\/strong>\u201d. Children get to make mistakes and learn from them. They get to form worldviews and have their own moralistic perspective regarding complex matters. They learn the importance of maintaining physical as well as mental well-being. They learn different kinds of good etiquette. And what is important is that all this learning happens under the protective care of parents and teachers! They are responsible for the child before the child finds themselves on their own in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">All in all,\u00a0<strong>school education<\/strong>\u00a0helps your child in the following ways:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Fosters basic skills (from reading, writing, speaking to cognitive and problem-solving skills)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Imparts general knowledge (providing the ability to look at a thing from multiple viewpoints)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enhances creativity and critical thinking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pushes them to recognize talents and decide upon their career goal<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Makes them meet new people of their age and gather different experiences<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inculcates in them multiple intelligences (logical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, visual, musical, kinesthetic, etc.)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gives them a glimpse of the \u201c<strong>real world<\/strong>\u201d they will soon be a part of<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, how and why would you think that formal schooling is not important for your child? Schools are not limited to<strong>&nbsp;academics<\/strong>&nbsp;anymore, so your&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bachpanglobal.com\/blog\/can-online-playschool-become-decent-option-kids\/\"><strong>child\u2019s growth and development<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;need to include everything that counts today. Remember that holistic learning wouldn\u2019t only help your child make the best of life but also would lead your child to the \u201csuccess\u201d you dream for.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>School education\u00a0refers to the knowledge and learning that children acquire while in school.
