Values Education is one of the most important things that should be taught in
schools. As Filipinos we are all known for our good characteristics. When we were still
small, we are taught by our parents to give respect to elders, love our brothers, sisters
and family, have faith in God and always be kind to others. However, in our generation
today these traits are slowly fading. That’s why it is important to practice values in
schools among students. The educational institute on the country plays a big
contribution in promoting values education for students to construct a good character.

Unless a child attended preschool or nursery, the structure and routines of the school
day and the social relationships within the school setting must be entirely learned. There
are many new behaviors and experiences that children adapt when starting to school. A
student adapts to form bonds and develop social bonds with other children in school
and learn the work ethic that goes along with school and understand the goals of
learning.
