About The Brand
Name: Virtue Ethics Foundation
About: Virtue Ethics Foundation is a UK not-for-profit organisation working to ensure that children are supported to understand and appreciate human dignity through structured character education.
Respect, fairness, courage, forbearance and compassion are not ‘duties’ we should be told to adopt, they are the basis of good moral character and, as teachers, parents and carers, we have a duty to support and nurture our children to develop this compassion.
We believe the current Ofsted framework does not achieve the desired aims of both fulfilling the purpose of character education and the reasons for its advocacy.
The Influencer Campaign
Campaign: Human Dignity Through Character Education in Primary Schools
Brief: We are lobbying the government for character education to be implemented into mainstream education under PSHE from primary level education upwards.
We are calling for the government to review and restructure the current, non-statutory, character education and adequately teach and support children to tackle today’s societal issues including homophobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia, and knife crime through a structured, values-based curriculum with human dignity at its core.
As teachers, parents and UK citizens, we are calling out for your support to nurture the next generations to develop, respect, fairness, courage, forbearance and compassion.
At 10,000 signatures, the government will respond to this petition, without your help to reach this goal this issue may never be resolved. Together let’s go above this aim and finally get parliament to take action: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/578638
