Vasily Sukhomlinsky (1918–1970) was arguably the most influential Soviet educator of the post-war period. He was a practising teacher, and from 1947 to 1970 was principal of a school in the Ukrainian village of Pavlysh. One of Sukhomlinsky's primary concerns was to inculcate in his students the values of compassion and service, combined with sensitivity to beauty in nature, art and human relationships. For Sukhomlinsky, there were thousands of connections between physical, moral, aesthetic, intellectual and vocational education. His approach to values education is unusual in the extent to which it permeated the whole school program, and also in the extent to which it was accompanied by practical training in good works.
