Does the education system damage young people's emotional develpment? What is the symbolic meaning of examinations and tests? This study takes a look at the concepts and values of education and questions traditional attitudes. It examines the psychological effects of education on young people and adults and explores the role of education in "splitting" the intellect and emotions, psyche and some. It sees tests and examinations as a rite of passage.
