In the procession aspect of social change, education is but a defining factor. Formal education is clearly one of the main and effective agents of socialization. School not only teaches reading, writing and other skills, but also how to think and behave accordingly. They permeate new beliefs, attitudes, dreams and expectations.

It produces skilled people with sound knowledge to work in commercial, manufacturing, technical and social fields. This highly powered human resource contributes through its innovative ability and development to the growth of national wealth. Education therefore promotes awareness, skills and attitudes in the growing generation that accelerate modernization.

The mental scope is extended, increasing interest in creativity and exploration. This allows people to be broad-minded and encourages them to consider new ideas without compromising with old thoughts.
- Education sets up a society of thinkers, scientists, technocrats, the leaders, rulers, co-planners, managers, doctors, teachers, etc. They are highly sensitive to the needs and demands of a modernized society, work towards a consensus on important issues, including emotional and national integration, and particularly international understanding. They socialize people in the right context by fostering scientific temperament and encouraging reason to look at objects, concepts, things, persons etc. These two cardinal tools, fostering rational thinking and scientific temper help man analyze everything in the correct forms and perspectives. Thus, a society is advanced in all respects and education is the originator and producer of everything that drives modernization.
- As a leading modernisation tool, Education stimulates, sustains and perpetuates people's interest in the process of change and development. Education helps to build an active, purposeful and inquiring mind. Education generates change of mind: mindset, interest, belief, etc. to work for a nation's development and prosperity. In addition, education contributes to increasing a nation's production and income. Consequently, employment and per capita growth and national income are positively correlated. Education is rightly called the motor of a nation's economic growth
