About the role

Gain valuable experience while sharpening your critical thinking and reasoning skills. Volunteer as an ethics teacher at your local primary school!

About the organisation

Organisation name : Primary Ethics

Primary Ethics classes for children run in hundreds of schools every week. Ethics lessons invite children to explore everyday ethical issues such as truth and lying, whether something is fair or unfair, cheating and friendship. Our impartial volunteers present stories and questions which encourage children to consider what they would do – and what they ought to do – in typical situations. The students develop skills that are essential in our complex, pressurised world – critical thinking, giving evidence-based reasons for their opinions, being able to discuss and disagree with others respectfully, making well-considered decisions.

Not for Profit : Yes
