  2. Importance of a FinishingSchool • Theoretical learning and understanding of concepts of literature should not be the sole purpose of education. Education has the goal of improving and polishing a person’s personality. This is where the significance of finishing school comes into play. A finishing school is based on this philosophy and provides pupils with a comprehensive educational experience. It aids pupils in meeting the following critical criteria:- • ValueEducation • SkillDevelopment • PersonalityDevelopment

  3. VALUE EDUCATION Our personal and professional lives are inextricably linked by our ethics and values. Our morals shape who we are as individuals and leave an influence on others. A person’s morals might also be influenced by the culture from which they come. One cannot judge a person’s morals directly to determine if they arecorrect orincorrect. There are some widely acknowledged morals that every human should adhere to. Completing school aids in the installation of these ideals and morals in students. Students are educated about unethical or immoral actions, and they are made aware of the negative aspects of society.

  4. PERSONALITYDEVELOPMENT The sum of our life experiences, influences, and education constitutes our personality. It is also influenced by the choices and decisions we make. Our personality is a composite of our views, ideologies, values, and expectations, as well as our overall activities. While our family and society have a huge influence on our personalities, schools and education play a vital impact as well. A finishing school focuses on the psychological and physiological components of personality development. It is thought that the things we are exposed to, as well as the influences we acquire from mentors and guides, can alter our personalities. Finishing schools offer a variety of programs to meet the needs of individual pupils. Personality development programs can help people enhance their social interaction and communication abilities, as well as their bodylanguage, work, and social life etiquette, and soon.
