The UK National Curriculum states that schools should reaffirm
commitment to the virtues of truth, justice, honesty, trust and a
sense of duty. This aim, loosely defined as 'character' education,
is widely agreed to be critical to healthy development and a fair,
just and democratic society. But what exactly is 'character' and
how best to educate for it? This vitally important book, written by
five internationally prominent figures and government advisers,
aims to answer that question. Accessibly written and brimming with
inspirational ideas, it looks at questions of research, education,
government policy and societal engagement with character, including
in the light of COVID-19 and the huge debt owed to the public
services frontline. This book is a fascinating and vital read for
parents, teachers and anyone concerned with social justice,
developing the energy and passion of young people and working
towards a better, stronger, fairer society. This could very well be
the most important book you read all year!
