Solution

Education is only complete when it leads to the all-round development of the individual, not only mental but also moral development. Moral Education influences the social thinking of the individual and makes him or her distinguish between what is right and what is wrong. Moral Education is important as it teaches diversity, tolerance mutual respect, and moral values.

Moral values are values that express ideas about the good life. Honesty, responsibility, and respect for others is the domain of moral education. The study of morality is vital because we live in a world of rapid change. Education should make children learn moral values such as truthfulness, honesty, charity, hospitality, tolerance, love, kindness, and simplicity. Moral education should be taught as a separate subject like moral science. Thus moral education is important in schools as it teaches many good things.
