ISSUES OF MORAL EDUCATION FOR PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS IN THE MODERN EDUCATION SYSTEM
Abstract
Moral education for primary school students is an integral and prioritized focus of the educational process. Cultivating a generation that is intellectually, physically, and ethically sound and well-rounded from the earliest stages of childhood is considered the most fundamental objective in modern society. Moral education is a complex and continuous process aimed at developing children's consciousness and nurturing individuals who can find their place in society—who are socially active, tolerant, respectful, and possess a deep sense of love for their parents, homeland, and nature. Every child entering the education system should be endowed with qualities such as independent thinking, self-regulation of behavior, and the conscious embrace of ethical norms. For this reason, it is crucial to implement a structured program of moral education in primary grades through a phased and deeply integrated approach.
