● Education - Creating Value

The founder of Soka education, Tsunesaburo Makiguchi, established this pedagogy based on his firm belief that the happiness of children should be the purpose of education.

A key element of Soka education is the quality of the relationship between teacher and student. The teacher’s genuine care and concern for the student, and their efforts to nurture the unique character and potential of each learner, are the fundamental heart of Soka education.

"Soka" is derived from the Japanese characters “sozo” (creation) and “kachi” (value), and literally means value creation. Soka education seeks to empower students to perceive value in every aspect of life.
