Abstract

Value education refers to planned educational actions aimed at the development of proper attitudes, values, emotions and behaviour patterns of the learners. So value oriented programmes are organising in schools to inculcate values among students. The objectives were to find out the level of perception of value oriented programme by the secondary school students which are implemented in secondary schools and to find out if any difference in the perception of value oriented programmes by the secondary school students with reference to gender, age and type of school. 302 samples were selected from a population of VIII, IX and X secondary school students of Attingal Educational District. The investigators developed a Rating scale on Perception of Value Oriented Programme among secondary school students. Analysis of the survey data was done by percentage analysis, ANOVA and t-tests. The results showed that the level of perception of value oriented programmes by the secondary school students is low. Female students showed more significant difference in their perception of value oriented programmes than that of male students. Students with age group of 14 and 15 showed higher value perception of value oriented programmes than that of 13 year old students. Government school students showed greater perception of value oriented programmes than that of aided and private school students and it may be due to the transmission or modelling of good values from teachers to students because of their friendly relationship. Also Government is paying interest in the well functioning of the schools and for the betterment of the students in all respects.
