PREFACE
The present concept of finishing school is vastly
different from its origins. In todays world a
finishing school is defined as A private
school for students that emphasizes training in
all round personality development, cultural and
social activities. Specific skill sets may be
imparted as value addition. The name reflects
that it also follows the standard educational
techniques and is intended to complete the
educational experience. It could be in the form
of a short course or as a one-year
curriculum. In the early part of the twentieth
century, finishing school was a common
perception in which young ladies were
trained about top-class rules of etiquette and
basic manners. Intellectuals were considered
relative at such schools, with a primary focus
on personality development. As this concept grew
less popular in the second half of the twentieth
century, there was a decline in finishing
school. Womens roles and presence in society
evolved, and public schools became increasingly
important. Finishing schools resurfaced in the
last decade of the twentieth century, but with a
new perception and business strategy. The concept
of Finishing Schools was reintroduced just after
the 1990s, and with an entirely different
worldview and commercial strategy. These are
currently regarded as a location wherein
children receive specialist skills to improve
their personalities.

• Importance of a Finishing School
• Theoretical learning and understanding of
  concepts of literature should not be the sole
  purpose of education. Education has the goal of
  improving and polishing a persons personality.
  This is where the significance of finishing
  school comes into play. A finishing school is
  based on this philosophy and provides pupils with
  a comprehensive educational experience. It aids
  pupils in meeting the following critical
  criteria-
• Value Education
• Skill Development
• Personality Development

VALUE EDUCATION Our personal and professional
lives are inextricably linked by our ethics and
values. Our morals shape who we are as
individuals and leave an influence on others. A
persons morals might also be influenced by the
culture from which they come. One cannot judge a
persons morals directly to determine if they are
correct or incorrect. There are some widely
acknowledged morals that every human should
adhere to. Completing school aids in the
installation of these ideals and morals in
students. Students are educated about unethical
or immoral actions, and they are made aware of
the negative aspects of society.

PERSONALITY DEVELOPMENT The sum of our life
experiences, influences, and education
constitutes our personality. It is also
influenced by the choices and decisions we make.
Our personality is a composite of our views,
ideologies, values, and expectations, as well as
our overall activities. While our family and
society have a huge influence on our
personalities, schools and education play a
vital impact as well. A finishing school focuses
on the psychological and physiological
components of personality development. It is
thought that the things we are exposed to, as
well as the influences we acquire from mentors
and guides, can alter our personalities.
Finishing schools offer a variety of programs to
meet the needs of individual pupils. Personality
development programs can help people enhance
their social interaction and communication
abilities, as well as their body language, work,
and social life etiquette, and so on.

SKILL DEVELOPMENT Skills have become a necessary
component of todays society. Technical skill
improvement can aid a persons career chances.
Domain-specific or broad skills are also
possible. Many industries and educational
institutions nowadays place a greater emphasis
on an individuals
skills rather than their theoretical knowledge and
education. A skill development program may not be
included in the
curriculum of public schools. Technical skill
development is stressed heavily in finishing
school. An individual students potential and
interests are assessed first, and then skills
are transmitted accordingly. Every individual is
required to have a set of fundamental talents.
Communication skills, writing skills,
observation, and perception skills, and so on are
among them.

In a finishing school, special programs are
developed to help pupils develop such skills.
These are also referred to as general abilities.
In finishing school, domain specific skills are
also taught based on a students interest and
potential. Graphic design, development, and
coding are only a few examples. In general,
finishing school better prepares a student for
college and work life. It addresses several
important features and characteristics in life.
To improve the proficiency of their courses,
several schools have adopted the type of school
model. The cost of these schools is determined
by several factors, including infrastructure,
quality, and location. It provides the best
opportunities for a comprehensive educational
experience.
