Primary Ethics’ classes support children to develop their moral reasoning capabilities. The focus is on skills development rather than the promotion of any particular view. We are the sole approved provider of ethics classes to NSW public schools and an independent Australian charity.

In ethics classes students explore ethical issues through the give-and-take of reasoned argument. They learn to disagree respectfully, to challenge ideas and to support their arguments with considered evidence rather than according to habit or peer pressure. WHAT ROLES COULD I VOLUNTEER FOR?
