Character Education



                       Character Education Class

Character education involves teaching children about values including 
honesty, kindness, generosity, courage, freedom, equality and respect. 
 
The goal of incorporating Character Education into the Bedford Academy 
Health Curriculum is to engage students in discussions which make them think 
critically about moral and ethical questions. Through class discussions, 
readings, group work, role playing and charity events students have been 
inspired to practice moral and ethical behaviour.

The foundation of the program consists of eleven priciples:
*Respect
*Honesty
*Fairness and Justice
*Caring
*Perseverance
*Citizenship
*Courage
*Sense of Responsibility
*Self-Discipline
*Trust
*Success
