Values education

Part of the new funding requirements to state and territory schools is that school provide values education. The values to be taught explcitily to students are care, compassion, doing your best, a fair go, freedom, honesty and trustworthiness, integrity, respect, responsibility, understanding, tolerance and inclusion. Posters are adorning public schools with these values printed upon them, as well as a rudimentary explanation of each, with a watermark of Simpson and his donkey behind.
