Synopsis
Understanding Character Education introduces readers to the key ideas, practices and concepts that are shaping character education in schools today. The book explores the principles underpinning character education and the pedagogical practices which ensure it comes alive in schools.
Each chapter includes a variety of features to help navigate through the ideas, themes and practices examined. These include:
•Chapter objectives to help readers understand the core focus and intentions of each chapter
