520 _aEducation has an immense potential to formulate and enhance the entire gamut of human values - related to ethical, social, and spiritual standards. Contemporary education is in a crisis of morals to some extent because of the absence of a value-based purpose in its planning and practice. The individual, social and occupational worth of a person, eventually, are identified on the basis of a combination of both intellectual and moral virtues. This article unfolds the laudable initiative launched recently to enhance core values among school children in the activity mode that seeks to impart ethical meaning to one's education, augment commitment to academic tasks, society, and, the prerequisites of principled mores. It goes on to demonstrate the functioning of the inspiring programme aimed at stimulating ethical and value based education at the school level with a fond hope to produce a generation of dedicated, honest and progressive citizens. - Reproduced.
