Development of National Moral Education Curriculum

The Crown Prince Court of Abu Dhabi (CPC) has introduced a 35 hour per year national curriculum in civic and moral education for children aged 5 to 16.

AlphaPlus, working with City & Guilds, has led the development of this world-class curriculum which focuses on values – peace, rights, respect for diversity, empowerment and intolerance of inequality – and supports education leaders in these politically and culturally sensitive areas.

The curriculum focuses on the key elements of ethics, personal and community development, culture and heritage, civic education and rights and responsibilities.

AlphaPlus convened a team of world experts, who led the development of the curriculum structure supported by curriculum developers. We also developed teaching units, ran training courses and supported the schools piloting the programme, which is now being rolled out across all schools in the United Arab Emirates.
