Here’s why schools like St. Joseph’s Institution International Elementary School value character education just as much as academics.
A well-rounded education is one that helps students achieve academic excellence and holistic growth. St. Joseph’s Institution International Elementary School does this by integrating character education into all aspects of its students’ school life.
What is character education?
Character education is the process of promoting character development and ethical decision-making. At SJI International Elementary School, this is done through The Virtues Project, a globally recognised framework that translates universal values into daily habits.
Why is character education important?
Character education provides children with a ‘toolkit’ of skills that help them thrive in life, establishing a moral compass and fostering resilience in them. Using The Virtues Project, students actively reflect, acknowledge, and embed the ‘virtue of the week’ into their school life; growing into compassionate, responsible, and resilient individuals.
You can learn more about SJI International Elementary School’s character education through its website, or attend any of its monthly open days to see it in action.
