a)      The purpose of schooling


The basic purpose of education is for each student to reach their full potential in order to live
morally, creatively, and successfully in a democratic society. We go to school primarily to
acquire the skills and education need to live independently and successfully. Furthermore,
school teaches us social skills that will be useful in our future lives and careers. Public
education teaches us how to work together efficiently.Obviously, the purpose of education is
to prepare kids for life. On the one hand, we mean that it equips students with the skills they
need to find work after graduation and contribute to society as productive members. Teachers
who promoted our individuality, on the other hand, are the ones most of us remember long
after we've finished school.

b)      The sociology of education


Educational sociology is the study of how public institutions and individual experiences
influence education and its outcomes. It largely concerns the public educational institutions of
modern industrial civilizations, as well as the expansion of higher, further, adult, and
continuing education. Teachers can gain a better grasp of how students behave in groups by
studying sociology of education. Understanding the Role of Society in Education By studying
sociology of education, teachers may learn more about the relationships and interactions that
occur in the classroom and in the community, as well as how these interactions impact the
teaching and learning process. For example, the teacher recognises Teddy's behaviour and
begins to connect with him in that video. This enables him to adjust his behaviour in a healthy
manner while also assisting him in achieving his long-term objectives. While interacting with
Teddy, the teacher notices that the kid has a lot of promise.

c)       The philosophy of Education


The goals, forms, techniques, and meaning of education are all investigated in education
philosophy. Both a fundamental philosophical examination of these themes and a description
or analysis of specific instructional approaches are covered by this phrase.The area of
practical philosophy concerned with the essence of education, as well as the philosophical
concerns that can arise from educational theory and practise, is called education philosophy.
Philosophers and other educational theorists have recommended a variety of goals, including
the development of curiosity and the desire to learn; the promotion of creativity; the creation
of knowledge and knowledgeable pupils; the strengthening of understanding; and the
promotion of moral thought.A system of principles, norms, or ideas used to define behaviour
and cognition is referred to as philosophy. Buddhism is an example of philosophy. Based on

logical reasoning, the study of the nature, causes, or principles of reality, knowledge, or
values.(ancient) Love of, or pursuit for, wisdom or knowledge.Teddy's teacher establishes her
own philosophy in this movie, which will be to "educate youngsters" when she learns of
Teddy's difficulty. Teddy benefited much from her teaching style in overcoming his
difficulties. 

d)      Educational opportunity


Educational opportunities are those that attempt to enable people to gain information and
skills, as well as to foster particular capacities. When all students have the opportunity to
absorb a concept and see the lessons inside, education is a better institution. No one can tell
you where an idea will lead you with your thoughts. Because part of education involves
demonstrating what we've learned, examinations are required to assess our capacity to
learn.Long-term, inclusive economic growth and social cohesion can be aided by equitable
educational opportunities. Individuals may be empowered to attain their greatest potential and
enjoy the rewards of their labour via progressive education and skills programmes, regardless
of their circumstances at birth.The aims that make up educational possibilities are most
frequently associated with access to educational institutions such as schools and universities,
although apprenticeships, professional development, and training are also educational
chances.In this video,miss Thompson give the education opportunity to him with giving more
attention for him to bring out from family problems and she try to help max for him to
success in studies because when he check his previous academic status all teddy got a better
academic status.
