Character Education
Character education is becoming ever more relevant and critical in our modern society. Our students are constantly being bombarded with messages from mainstream and social media making it critical that schools assist in laying a firm foundation with regards to ethics and values. Schools already ‘do’ character education but in this training session, Intrinsic Education assists Teachers to identify ways that they can make character education more explicit in their day to day roles. This workshop looks at putting in place a measurable programme where students and staff develop their ability to reflect on aspects of character development, knowing that this is so critical to the success of students in our modern world.
“INTELLIGENCE PLUS CHARACTER
THAT IS THE GOAL OF TRUE EDUCATION.”
– Martin Luther King Jr
