The aim of the teaching of Confucius was to bring about social reforms through education, the individuals of society; to put forth an ideal social order through cultivating ideal ways of life and a full development of the personality of the individual. Confucius put the importance of education on the same level as that of population and wealth, and regarded these as the three essentials of any nation.

Confucius was fully aware of the importance of social institutions to ensure the stability and safety of individuals. Society must adjust itself to the individual in order to escape stagnation, and the individual must also adjust himself to society in order to become human, no one can live or develop as a human without the help of society. Therefore, Confucius did not teach people, as the pessimists of his time did, to flee from the world and to become irresponsible hermits or political nihilists. Confucius thought what was needed was work in society to bring about social reforms through education.
