Commending the Principal of CMS rajajipuram, Mrs D Watal for organizing this festival, renowned educationist and CMS Founder Dr Jagdish Gandhi said that Global TIE would indeed prove to be a milestone giving a new direction to today’s purposeless education. Dr Gandhi said that such programmes are in great demand not only in India but in the entire world today. He said that education is a continuous process whose purpose is to make children the light of this world by imparting the education of all three kinds namely the human, material and divine. If a man is given only material education, it can be proved to be harmful and can lead him towards destruction. It is the moral responsibility of the schools to make children good citizens of the world by imparting not just the textual knowledge but the education aimed at their moral and character building. It is the social responsibility of the modern schools to contribute in the creative development of the society. Dr Gandhi expressed his happiness over the fact that this educational fest Global TIE is being hosted by CMS and said that this would be a great opportunity for the students, parents and teachers of CMS to learn from renowned educationists of the world.
