Khushal Khan Khattak Philosophy of Education

Abstract

Khushal Khan Khattak believed that the meaning of education is hidden in the training of individuals.  He considers this training important for him from childhood to his death.  Moreover, he feels free from the boundary walls of a school or college.  In other words, he is a champion of informal education. For this purpose, he considers the entire earth as a school and all the things of the universe are teachers.  In this regard Khushal's ultimate reliance is upon the character building, Development of ego/self-respect, personality development, and inclusion of Moral values, leadership training, and acquiring different skills, required for complete living. Khushal Khan Khattak’s this belief and perception of education is very much in line with the educational definitions of different eminent educations and educational objectives. This is the reason that besides his other celebrated titles he got the unique title of an educationist as well.
