Values Education


Values Education is an essential element of whole-person education which aims at fostering students' Proper values and attitudes through the learning and teaching of various Key Learning Areas/subjects and the provision of relevant learning experiences. On this ground, it is to develop students' ability to identify the values embedded, analyse objectively and make reasonable judgement in different issues they may encounter at different developmental stages so that they could take proper action to deal with the challenges in their future life.

 

Schools could promote Values Education through nurturing in their students the twelve priority values and attitudes: "Perseverance", "Respect for Others", "Responsibility", "National Identity", "Commitment", "Integrity" , "Benevolence" (Optimised in December 2023), "Law-abidingness" , "Empathy" , "Diligence"(Newly added in November 2021) ,"Unity" and “Filial Piety” (Newly added in December 2023).

 

Taking cultivation of Proper values and attitudes as the direction, schools should make use of everyday life events to strengthen the coordination of learning activities, and enhance the connection, among various cross-curricular domains in values education, including moral education, civic education, national education (including Constitution, Basic Law and national security education), anti-drug education, life education, sex education, media and information literacy education, education for sustainable development, human rights education under the legal framework, etc. so as to provide students with all-round learning experience conducive to their whole-person development.
