Describe the functions of school as an agency for the socialization of the child.

School in the modern time is treated as the most suitable, active and formal agency of education. As per the changing need of the hour, school develops and grows with its specific goals.

It is emerged out of the demand for education and pressure on the parents regarding their educational pursuit.

Socialization refers to a process by which individuals acquire a personal identity and learn the knowledge, language, and social skills required to interact with others.

Again, students don’t only learn from the academic curriculum prepared by teachers and school administrators.

They also learn social rules and expectations from interactions with others. Students in America receive rewards for following schedules and directions, meeting deadlines, and obeying authority.

They learn how to avoid punishment by reducing undesirable behaviors like offensive language.

They also figure out that to be successful socially, they must learn to be quiet, to wait, to act interested even when they’re not, and to please their teachers without alienating their peers.

When the child comes to the school, his formal indoctrination into the culture of the society begins. He is exposed to a wider background than hitherto known to him.

He is formally introduced to the lore and the learning, the arts and the sciences, the values and the beliefs, the customs and taboos of the society from a wider circle, his teachers play a very significant role. 

The child may admire, respect and love some of his teachers. The impression which they make during this impressionable age lasts almost throughout his life.
