Children must be taught in a way which was likely

… to arouse in them a living interest in the ideals and achievements of mankind, to bring them to some familiarity with the literature and history of their own country and to give them some power over language as an instrument of thought and expression.

The formal education of school days should only be a beginning. So

while making them conscious of the limitations of their knowledge, to develop in them such a taste for good reading and thoughtful study as will enable them to increase that knowledge in after years by their own efforts …

The School must at the same time encourage to the utmost the children’s natural activities of hand and eye by suitable forms of practical work and manual instruction and afford them every opportunity for the healthy development of their bodies, not only by training them in appropriate physical exercises and encouraging them in organised games, but also by instructing them in the working of some of the simpler laws of health.
