The theme of progressive and continuous growth, one of five conspicuous in the educational legislation of England, was the first to be formulated in the development of that country's education. Both social and individualistic factors are to be found therein.This them blends cosiderations of social justice which underline the norms of natural law embodied in the educational legislation with insistence on positive activity to provide a firm base for the solution of all the problems raised in the educational philosophy of our times. Hence, this first theme with its characteristically English conception of education as progressive and continuous growth may, by reason of its historical background and its positive attitude torards modern questions, be acknowledged as qualified for consideration as a proposition with claims for universal recognition. It may likewise be considered as a expression in the field of education of social justice for all. Finally, this first theme is ultimately reducible to the fifth them, that on freedom.
