Sažetak
We are living in a time in which there is a global crisis of ethical and moral values, which is why it is extremely important to raise our children in a way that will help them develop core values. According to perceptions of teachers in Croatia, most students are not sufficiently familiar with core values, so it is the responsibility of schools to pass these values on to new generations during the education process. Therefore, the role of teachers in upbringing children should become dominant again, to prevent students and society in general from becoming spiritually and morally impoverished, and to ensure their advancement instead.
The aim of this research was to examine teachers (N = 403) in primary schools in the Republic of Croatia and to establish if students in Croatian schools are provided with quality education and taught core values; to find out what the teachers’ opinions about contemporary moral education of students in schools and in their own classes are; to determine the extent to which students have been educated before starting school; to determine the extent to which students have adopted core values, and to find out if teachers consider it important to publish literature related to the teaching of core values in Croatian schools.
Most teachers believe that education and upbringing in Croatian schools can be rated as very good or excellent (both through teaching and literature). However, most of the respondents feel that students have not been brought up well enough before starting school.
Moreover, they also feel that students are not moral and that they have not adopted basic human values. Based on these perceptions, a high percentage of teachers believe that there is a great need for publishing literature related to the teaching of core values in Croatian schools. This would help schools fulfil their primary function of educating and bringing up children, while students would become moral individuals ready to lead future generations and society in Croatia.
The answers to these questions are very interesting and instructive.
