Transformation of the individual

Education can be pretty powerful stuff. When a student has a positive attitude to learning, feel like they belong, can be creative, make good, informed choices and succeed in some way then their whole person can be transformed.
When we watched the film Stand and Deliver each student was ultimately individually transformed and grew as a person as a result of the teacher's belief in them and their abilities.
In the ideal classroom, each student would be transformed or at least inspired to better themselves in some way.
