The Human Values Foundation offers programmes to schools and youth-related organisations enabling children and young people to understand the crucial importance of positive values and learn how to practise them in every aspect of their lives, so developing the personal, emotional and social skills that will help them live a fulfilled and constructive life. To date around 1800 schools in the UK have purchased these resources. There are currently two programmes:
- Education in Human Values (EHV) – for children aged 4 to 12, and
- Social and Emotional Education (SEE) – for young people aged 12 to 14+.
The programmes consist of a teaching manual, fully resourced lesson plans and other materials including songs and also music for “silent sitting”. Training videos for teachers/facilitators are also available, along with ‘Home Learning Units’ and ‘Partnership Learning Units’ which are short exercises that the pupils can do with key adults in their home environments, thereby promoting buy-in from parents and carers and stimulating interest in their children’s education.
