School is just a preparation to make the students capable of thinking, studying, progressing and becoming intelligent if they can - all that must be done during the entire life and not only in school.

According to what I see and know, as a general rule, children over 14 should be allowed their independence and should be given advice only if and when they ask it.
They should know that they are responsible for managing their own existence.

The school should be an opportunity for progress for the teacher as well as for the student. Each one should have the freedom to develop freely.
A method is never so well applied as when one has discovered it oneself. Otherwise it is as boring for the teacher as for the student.

To be repeated each day by all the students:
It is not for our family, it is not to secure a good position, it is not to earn money, it is not to obtain a diploma, that we study.
We study to learn, to know, to understand the world, and for the sake of the joy that it gives us.

It is not through uniformity that you obtain unity.
It is not through uniformity of programmes and methods that you will obtain the unity of education.
Unity is obtained through a constant reference, silent or expressed, as the case demands, to the central ideal, the central force or light, the purpose and the goal of our education.
The true, the supreme Unity expressed itself in diversity. It is mental logic that demands sameness. In practice, each one must find and apply his own method, that which he understands and feels. It is only in this way that education can be effective.
