In this episode of Am I The Teacher?, we explore why teaching children core values is one of the most powerful ways to shape their future. While academic achievement matters, values-driven learning gives children a sense of identity, purpose, and direction that influences their decisions for years to come. We discuss how parents and educators can help children discover, practise, and live by meaningful values both at home and at school.
🧠 Discussion Points:
Why teaching values is more important than simply teaching rules.
How values-driven learning empowers children to make wise, purpose-led choices.
Simple ways parents and educators can integrate values into everyday conversations and experiences.
The link between values, confidence, and long-term fulfilment.
💡 Key Takeaways:
Values provide children with a strong internal compass for both academic and personal decisions.
Teaching values fosters resilience, self-awareness, and a sense of purpose.
Consistently modelling and celebrating values helps children embody them in real life.
🎯 Challenge of the Week:
As a family, choose one value to focus on this week—such as kindness, responsibility, or perseverance. Talk about what it means, notice when it’s demonstrated, and celebrate small moments that reflect it.
📣 Call to Action:
Sit down as a family and create a simple Family Mission Statement that reflects your shared values. Post it somewhere visible as a daily reminder of who you are becoming together.
