Education is concerned with initiation into knowledge, modes of thought, social mores and skills which are inherently valuable or useful for future employment. Logic, order, cognitive development, “knowing that something is the case” are important. (Most of those holding this “initiation” view would also accept that motivation and active involvement on the learner’s part are also important). These ideas have been part of our educational thinking for some time.
They were eloquently advocated by thinkers such as R S Peters and P H Phenix in the 1960’s (Peters, 1966, Phenix, 1964). Curriculum planning based on the idea of a “core” for all pupils reflects this view – it remains influential in Scottish education, since both the 5-14 and the 14-16 curricula are still, at least for the present, largely based on it.
