Kant believed in the natural purity and goodness of man who can reach perfection only through education. He defined ideal education as a process of disciplining, socializing, civilizing and moralizing of man’s nature. To him, the ideal education is to train man’s will in accordance with the principles of reason, i.e., principles of ethics, not with those of natural and material desires. The purpose of this paper is to examine Kant’s approach to education and moral education based on his philosophy of ethics. The main argument of this paper is based on the premises that Kant’s view on education is actually a complementary part of his philosophy of ethics
