Positive feedback from schools using the HVF programmes

Some headteachers have commented that, based on the Human Values Foundation’s engaging materials, even after only one month of implementing the various teaching techniques and approaches, a marked improvement in atmosphere and behaviour throughout the whole school became evident.
The Human Values Foundation’s programmes are exciting and innovative ways of exploring a values-based education system. They appeal to children, parents, teachers and headteachers alike, because the values are truly universal. Assessments have rated the programmes as offering everyone the very best of values education. The resourses are ideally suitable for Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE) lessons; Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural (SMSC) education; Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL); Citizenship / Democracy; and assemblies.

We introduced Education in Human Values (EHV) a few years ago. Since then this school has been transformed. Our collective vision is united, we have become a caring, supportive team, behaviour is good, children love their school, and are committed to learning and everyone is happy - including the inspectors!
Too good to be true? Not at all. This programme has truly transformed the ethos of our school. It underpins all that we do and every interaction. Using EHV through Collective Worship and a commitment to cross curricular planning and teaching incorporating the EHV themes, we have created a culture which any society would envy. It can be done - you can turn your school round with this programme.
I believe every school in the land should use EHV - it will work with any religious or cultural background - it could revolutionise our society (and many of us believe that there is a great need for that). I recommend it strongly to all schools.

Values are central to our thinking, decision making and ultimately our actions and behaviour – and lie at the heart of everything that takes place in schools.

** What are values? ** They are the principles, fundamental convictions and standards that, over time, shape and form the reference points for how we live our lives. The Human Values Foundation (HVF) provides two exciting, well structured programmes each with a simple but very effective framework for exploring, developing and practising real-life values, based upon the universal values of Truth, Peace, Love, Right Action and Non-violence.

** What is values education? ** It is a learning process that promotes the understanding of values and develops the attitudes, skills and knowledge that enable individuals to live their chosen values as members of their various communities, applying them for example in their families, education environments, workplaces and within transnational organisations.
