Inspiring individuals, families, schools, communities, companies and organisations to be values-based.
Values-based education is supporting both children and adults to be the best that they can be in countries throughout the world. We all seek meaning and purpose in our lives, so it is not only children that can benefit from this transformative process, but adults too.
Dr Neil Hawkes constantly strives for better education for all and advocates a unique way of thinking about how we can live our lives which enables us to flourish personally, socially and academically. He describes how we can develop a secure sense of self by nurturing our natural positive dispositions. Neil demonstrates ways in which teachers, parents, pupils and indeed all of us can create happier and more productive lives by raising our self-awareness and self-confidence.
Dr Neil Hawkes demonstrates again and again that he has important insights into character education. I highly recommend this book.

Neil Hawkes has been the fearless pioneer of values-based education - both as an outstanding head of school and then as a public educator. This book encapsulates the extraordinary power of his message. Lord Richard Layard
The author has influenced not just the schools he has run, but countless others in using a values-based approach to change for the better the way children and their families lead their lives. Here he writes in a way that any school leader, in any country or setting, will find inspiring and practically useful in doing the same thing.

Neil Hawkes's vision is the change agent for values-based education we all need. This book provides the insight for us to move from 'talking the talk' to 'walking the walk' and is a must-read for parents and educators.

By inviting us to embark on a virtual relationship with him, Neil takes the reader on an evidence-based journey getting to the heart of what education should be about - not grades and results, but what we as a society want a well-educated 18 or 19 year old to look like.
Clive Byrne, Director, National Association of Principals and Deputy Principals
