THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF THE PROBLEM OF MORAL EDUCATION OF PRIMARY SCHOOL CHILDREN

Abstract

The article is dedicated to the view on the crucial role of moral education in the development of a child’s personality. This problem has become of great importance in the modern system of education. The authors consider the point of view that in the moral education of children, the leading place is occupied by a secondary school, where the formation of moral concepts and beliefs take place and stable habits and skills of moral behavior of students are developed. The problem of moral education in modern society has acquired special significance. This is due, first of all, to profound changes that gradually led to the awareness of the scientific and pedagogical community of the need to radically revise not so much the content of education as the existing means and methods of moral education of the younger generation in the entire educational space.
