                                       Education is very important because it opens the mind
                           FACTS       and expands it. And if your years in school are boring
                        to Understand  you can still educate yourself now.



          To solve the existing problems and evils in our society, roles of schools and
          organizations  are  established  with  specific  aims  and  objectives.  They  are
          established at various levels and voluntarily serve the society and people to get
          rid of many problems.
          Family is the first school for children.
          They grow up in a family and learn
          many things such as habits, etiquette,
          character, manner, socialization, etc.
          If family is good then a child will
          develop good  manners  and positive
          attitudes. If bad, he/she  also will
          learn the bad manners and attitude
          and always wants to escape from his/
          her responsibilities.

          A school is considered as the second
          home  of  a child.  Children  learn
          discipline, politeness, kindness, good            school students in uniform
          moral character,  good behaviour,
          reasoning  power,  healthy  customs  and traditions,  self-reliance,  etc.  from  the
          school and teachers. Teachers are the role model for the students. Whatever, this
          helps to import good education and knowledge easily to the children to develop
          good moral characters. In this way, the school can play various roles in solving the
          social problems and evils prevailing in the society. It is the centre of learning and
          social development. The school can play various roles to make society free from
          any kind of problems and evils. They are:

               Develop good character.
               Help to learn to be self-reliant.
