Summary

In different ways, the chapters in this second part of the book have articulated some important aspects of the pedagogy of ethical education. First is the central idea that ethical education will involve spaces for encounters and interactions between teachers and students and amongst young people themselves, for dialogue and informal exchanges that have a transformative power in their own right. Here ‘transformative’ means that they shake up the assumptions and transcend the boundaries of a person’s worldview and, through this, allow for new shared meanings. The spaces will enable students to experience and reflect on the qualities of existing relationships in the school community, as well as building new relationships.
