Abstract

This study is aimed at investigating the relationship between learning objectives in moral education in and pupils’ behaviour. The hypothesis which guided this study was the following: ‘there is a relationship between learning objectives related to moral education and pupils’ behaviour’. Through a survey design where 50 teachers randomly selected from 11 schools in Santa sub-division, the findings revealed that the correlation between this main variable (learning objectives and pupils’ behaviour was significant. The study revealed also that if most pupils showed a disruptive behaviour, it was because most teachers lacked skills and did not involve children in activities that permitted them to develop life skills.
