Introduction
The
past trends and innovative activities of humans with evident and realistic
impact on the human world actually sets up a significant insight into the
educational [though traditional] process pervading then. In our current
society, the significance of education has to an extent made education
necessary for the purpose of development. Hence, both quantitative and
qualitative education is an intrinsic tool and consequence for economic, social
and technological development. I.e. both formal and informal education is
necessary for the acculturation and enculturation processes, which basically
are the obvious determinants of the quality and quantity of knowledge
transferred.
As
important as education seems, its effectiveness and efficiency is dependent on
some requisite resource or factors. In this case finance and its proper/optimal
utilization. Thus the concept of the inseparable nature of education and
finance is undoubtedly based on the maxim that finance is a prerequisite tool
or agent for the aims and objectives of every educational institute or function
to be realized. With retrospect, finance is of utmost importance in fostering
and ensuring an effective educational Programme.
Education and Finance
as inseparable
Education
Every facet of life requires skill or
dexterity, percept or knowledge for adequate operation in the context of
fulfilling the stated or desired function. Thus, it is quite necessary for
every individual to be educated, either formal or non-formal, in order to build
the apt propriety in the individual needed for survival in an ever changing
society.
Education
can be define as an enculturation and acculturation process that involves instilling
norms, values, knowledge, skills and positive behaviour on individuals, youths
or adults for their survival in the society and development of the society. With
credence to this definition, it is quite obvious that fiscal resources are inherent
and concentric for every education function or institution to completely
realize their objectives both quantitatively and qualitatively.
Finance
Finance
in a simple context critically depicts money available for utilization or
expenditure. It can be define as monetary resources in stock or in hold. The
operational proceedings of every organization are dependent on the available
finance and level of education. However, institutes that has being structured
with amazing schemes are never void or empty of the intrinsic existence of
finance “optimally harnessed”, as a driving success force.
Education
and Finance
Education
and educational management is not plausible without the availability of
essential facilities, equipment, human resources and adequate policies. All
these are factors that determine the success or failure of education and
education management upon which without finance seems void. I.e. finance is
actually the grand factor of them all in that with finance, the rest of these
factors can be resolved or propagated respectively. For example; the readiness
and willingness of the human resources basically the teachers is based on the
emolument [salaries paid to teachers on the basis their teaching activities]
which sets up a scenario of quid pro quo i.e. receiving after giving in
equivalence. What the teacher gives is “knowledge, discipline and moral values”
and in respect he or she receives emoluments that are equivalent to what he/she
offers. Finance is a drive pulling all other factors that might affect
education to a plausible effectiveness.
Another
case example is the availability of necessary facilities and equipment which to
a large extent determines the efficiency of education. But with a vivid look and
a frood, it becomes so glaring that the availability of these facilities and equipment
are dependent on the available finance making finance inseparable from
education because every aspect of education requiring efficacy, by making some
dependent resource available actually waits on the availability of an
independent resource which is finance. Thus finance is an independent resource
that fosters both quantitative and qualitative education either formal or non-formal
in operation.
Conclusion
The
driving force of every organization actually is finance which is an independent
factor is every organization determining the availability of other necessary
factors. Education being a tool for social change and preservation of culture
demands finance “a grand factor” for the actualization or realization of the
set educational goals and objectives. Thus as a means of concluding, Education
and finance is inseparable because at every stage and point in the educational
process, finance is actually a prerequisite.
