What does Locke think is the function of education?

Starting from the "whiteboard theory" against the concept of talent, Locke attaches great importance to the role of education, especially the role of education in the formation of human personality. He said: "Nine out of ten people we meet every day are good or bad, or useful or useless, which is determined by their education. The reason why humans are so different is because of education. " From the broad concept of education, Locke's assertion is correct, but he failed to recognize the dialectical relationship among education, environment and heredity. Although he admits that some children are born smarter than others, he still thinks that education and training are better than being born. Therefore, he was appointed as the founder of empiricism, and this cognitive tradition has occupied a dominant position in the field of British philosophy and educational thought so far.
