The utility of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan's educational philosophy in the context of the current Indian education system.

Abstract

This paper focuses on the interrelationship between Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan's educational philosophy and the current Indian education system. It provides a detailed analysis of Radhakrishnan's educational ideas—such as the aims of education, teaching methods, curriculum, teachers, and discipline—in the context of the current Indian educational landscape. His philosophy bears a clear imprint of idealism, with a special emphasis on the character and spiritual development of children. His principles for university education remain highly practical today, and the current Indian education system has adopted many of his key ideas, making his educational philosophy extremely useful and relevant in today's context.
