    Like an army defeated
    The snow hath retreated,
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    At the heart of the educational process lies the child. No advances in policy, no acquisition of new equipment have their desired effect unless they are in harmony with the child, unless they are fundamentally acceptable to him.
