3. What are Values

Values help children explore what kind of person they want to be — and what matters most to them.

In youHQ, pupils choose and reflect on values like kindness, curiosity, courage, or teamwork. These aren’t rules or targets — just simple prompts that build self-awareness and character. They help children notice how their actions align with their intentions, and how their behaviour impacts others.

It’s one of the most powerful ways to nurture a strong sense of self, both in school and beyond.
