在教育与社会需要之间一直存在着争论，围绕着“顺应”与“引领”，人们各执一词。一味地顺应可能会导致教育的“去教育性”和“反教育性”，导致市场的“无序”和“失德”。从教育实践的超越性、学前教育的专业性、社会需要的自利性等来看，教育也有必要对社会需要进行引领，主要体现在关注社会的现实需要与研究课程、专业标准两方面。

　There is controversy between education and social need all long. The paper considers that blind acclimation would lead to “be apart from the nature of education” and “anti-nature of education”, and make the market “disorder” and “missing morals”. Otherwise, education must lead social need, for education is exceeded and professional. To lead the market, we must pay attention to social need, and do researches on the standards of curriculum and profession.
