Classical curriculum
The classical curriculum is an educational approach that emphasizes studying the foundational texts, languages, and ideas of Western civilization, particularly Latin and Greek works. It often focuses on classical literature, philosophy, and history, aiming to develop critical thinking, analytical skills, and moral understanding. This method encourages learning through reading original texts, discussion, and reasoning, fostering a well-rounded intellectual foundation. It values the cultivation of virtue, character, and a deep appreciation of cultural heritage, providing students with a broad, historical context for understanding modern ideas and societies.
