Greetings
Teachers are our saviours, or perhaps we should qualify the statement
by identifying the type of teacher who will step up to be counted
as one of the "Sculptors" who will shape the character
of the adults and leaders of the the future.
Children who spend the best part of each weekday in a classroom
with a skilled teacher, a teacher who understands the critical
part they play in creating excellent adults, are a privilged group
of young people!
Society leans heavily on and is depending on the skilled teachers
to not only educate their children, but to instil character as
well.
The latter is mostly the responsibility of parents, however,
with the fragmentation of the family today, we find that this
task is rapidly moving to the next person who has the greatest
influence on the character of the child namely the school teacher.
As if these stalwarts of our society haven't enough on their
busy plates already, we now add yet another expected dimension
to their day.
Yet, for those teachers who see the wisdom of setting a priority
on the moral development of the child, this come as a blessing
rather than a burden.
The only proviso being, they are given a methodology to follow,
tools with which to get the job done efficiently.
That of course is the purpose of this site!
The resources beyond this media comprise books and PowerPoint
presentations on CD as well as teachers manuals explaining word-for-word
how to internalise all the critical moral values in their learners.
Time,of course, is a rare resource in schools, but this has been
more than adequately catered for by a small manipulation in one
day of the weeks lessons.
School Principals can "make" forty minutes available
every Friday by shortening each of the 8 lessons normally held
on this day by five minutes.
It is already in use.
