Finishing schools are grooming students for better life

When sons of Dasrath were sent to Maharishi Vasistha, that was part of existing tradition of Gurukul ,the conceptual finishing school of ancient times,where even

princes become commoners.Somehow this concept died gradually and more

organised grooming schools appeared on the scene

In the present day context,it is still a European concept but very much relevant in the modern Indian milieu, for all who are trying to rediscover the logic,roots and belief of our own recent mindset.we notice the women of today is not just an extension of

her male counterpart but an individual in her own right.After an education where she

learns to match her wits with her intellectual peers, she finds herself deficient in certain social graces,which will enable her to walk shoulder-to-shoulder with the

best of people .A finishing school is a type of private school for girls that emphasises

cultural studies and prepares students especially for social activities .It may consisit

of an intensive course,or a one year programme.

A finishing school focuses on developing a range of academic and social skills .Programmes typically include subjects such as languages and communication

interpersonal skills,etiquette, and social skills,but also home management,cooking floral art,table decoration and many others .

also are in queue .

High Society .Good manners are not taught in schools or most homes.

Children with no discipline are insecure.Families don,t eat together; are not learning

table manners or the art of conversation.
