About Charlotte Mason Education

Charlotte Mason threw a door wide open to the public over one hundred years ago conveying her magnanimous ideas on education in ways that have had a profound effect on the way children learn. Those ideas have gained fresh interest in our modern lives as parents continue seeking a better way to educate their children, a way that treats them as a person created in the image of God. 

This site is an attempt to honor Charlotte Mason’s heartfelt passion to “throw open for public use” her ideas and methods for all who care to seek it.

To educate children for any immediate end––towards commercial or manufacturing aptitude, for example––is to put a premium upon general ignorance with a view to such special aptitude. The greater includes the less, but the less does not include the greater. Excellent work of whatever kind is produced by a person of character and intelligence, and we who teach cannot do better for the nation than to prepare such persons for its uses. He who has intelligent relations with life will produce good work.Charlotte Mason
