Home as an agency of imparting eduction . Substantiate
Hi,
Home is the most important informal agency of education. It is an agency which is responsible for imparting early education and lying down the basis of farther education. In the words of Ballard, “Family is the original social institution, from which all other institutions have developed”. It is an institution to which every one of us is born. There is no parallel or substitute of the home as an agency of education.
Important functions of home :-
1. Social functions.
2. Economic functions.
3. Civic functions.
4. Moral functions.
5. Religious functions.
Educational functions of home :-
1. Primary social organisation.
2. Teaches the basic function of living.
3. Basis of personality.
4. Vocational education.
5. Self-confidence and positive outlook.
6. Social interaction.
7. Citizenship education.
8. Moral and spiritual values.
Hope this helps.
Good luck.
