"As schools have become more aware of their role in addressing personal and social issues, the importance of 'values and attitudes' have begun shaping education and curricula worldwide. This is evident in the national curriculum guide in Iceland where the curriculum guidelines are based on six fundamental pillars: literacy, sustainability, health and welfare, democracy and human rights, equality and creativity.
