PAEDOCENTRIC EDUCATION

In this concept of education child is in the focal point.all the other things such as teacher,text books,curriculum and schools are in the background.it stresses the fact that education should be guided by the nature of the child.this kind of education seeks to provide natural flow  of activity and spontaneous growth of the child.he must be allowed to enjoy complete freedom of action subject to the condition that he should not interfere with the freedom of others. Rousseau is the pioneer of the this school.Pestalozzi and Friedel also contributed to its development.
The teachers role is of an interesting observer and best that of guide who encourages,advises and stimulates the child.the child is stimulated to activity by his own felt needs and inner drives.
