of Neohumanist Schools. The teaching learning process of school
creates proper physical culture. The entire curricular practice is reoriented according to Neohumanism philosophy. The study also
identifies different dimensions of Neohumanist Education whether
developed among the students. Observation schedule, rating scale and
semi- structured interview were used to collect the data. Three schools
run on Neohumanism were selected randomly from three different
districts of West Bengal, India. Different dimensions of Neohumanism
prevail in the school were explored. The important aspects which have
been identified are: cultivation of healthy habits, expression of positive
emotions, maintaining harmony with others and with the self, service
spirit,concept of rationality and positive inter-personal relationship.
Socio-emotional development and development of mature moral
structures are the unique features which have been reported in
Neohumanist schools. Mature moral orientations are incorporated in
curriculum which initiates the development of moral structure. The
moral structure guides children to take mature moral decision. The
study finds that harmony with self and harmony with others,
universal love, sense of Omnipotent’s presence, service spirit, social
welfare and desire for collective good are the main basis of moral
development of children. The principles of harmony and universal love
are embedded in curriculum both as content and as practice. The students avoid such actions and thoughts that cause harm to others
even if these bring self pleasure. | Keywords : | | Neohumanism, rationality, physico-psychic environment,
