Abstract
Man is always immersed in a social environment which not only changes the structure of the individual or forces him to recognize facts but also provides him with a readymade system of signs. This imposes a series of obligations on him. The two environments home and school share an influential place in a child's life and a unique association exists between the two. Tucker & Bernstein, 1979. According to Sagar and Kaplan 1972, the family is by its very nature the socio-biological unit that exerts the greatest influence on the development and continuity of an individual's behaviour. After family, school is the most important experience in the process of child development. When the child enters the school arena, he is presented with new opportunities in terms of socialization and cognitive development. These opportunities are provided in different ways in different schools and can have a direct impact on the cognitive and affective behavior of students. The nature of this effect can be understood if we devote our research energy to finding out the environmental variables that are most effective in promoting the optimal development of each child's abilities.
