Closed petition Add Wisdom to the national curriculum"

Closed on

We must help our young people to understand our real, often very unkind world and be prepared to face it. Teaching wisdom in school will make our lives happier and the world a better place for all. We can do this by teaching wise decision-making skills.

We must provide guidance on wisdom and how to make moral decisions.
1. An hour a week discussing age-appropriate wisdom. For example, with little ones,wisdom starts with crossing a road safely.
2. Older students would discuss moral dilemmas and learn decision-making strategies.
3. They should study great minds such as Churchill, Lincoln, Franklin and how they made decisions.
4. They must learn that crime in an entertainment of fools and that you can't benefit from hurting others.
