According to the article explore the views and contributions of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan one of the most influential educationists and philosophers of the 20th century, on the role of women in education and society. It examines his perspective on the importance, challenges, and opportunities of women's education, as well as his vision of the ideal woman and her place in the family, the community, and the nation. It also analyzes his impact on the development and empowerment of women in India and beyond. In India and internationally, he raised awareness among academics about Indian heritage. If we wish to call ourselves civilized, we must cultivate compassion for the vulnerable and the suffering, chivalrous regard and respect for women, a belief in the inherent goodness of all people, regardless of race, colour, or nation of origin, a love for freedom and peace, an aversion to cruelty, and a never-ending commitment to the pursuit of justice. Our education system should support the growth of our students’ fearlessness of thought, moral courage and purposefulness observed by Radhakrishnan. The portrait educational ideologies, concepts and functions of Radhakrishnan are extremely pertinent in the 21st century these encompass the goals of education, the curriculum, the teaching strategies, the need for discipline, and the function of the teacher. The modern man’s perception will always be impacted by his profound influence. He will continue to be a champion of contemporary Indian education.
