The policy\u2019s emphasis on holistic development, ethical reasoning, socio-emotional learning, and character formation highlights the growing need to integrate value education into teacher preparation programmes. To explore these dimensions, a survey was administered to pre-service teachers using a Google Form comprising fifteen close-ended yes\/no questions and one open ended question. The quantitative analysis of the closed responses provided insights into prevailing attitudes, levels of awareness, and perceptions regarding the importance of ethics and human values in teacher education. Complementing this, qualitative thematic analysis of the open-ended responses offered deeper contextual understanding of how participants internalize and interpret value-based learning in relation to their personal experiences and professional aspirations. Findings reveal a strong convergence between pre-service teachers\u2019 views and the NEP 2020 vision, indicating broad support for integrating ethical understanding, value education, and social-emotional competencies across the curriculum. Respondents recognized the necessity of cultivating empathy, responsibility, critical thinking, and moral decision-making as essential qualities for future educators. The study therefore underscores the importance of structured, value-oriented training in teacher education programmes to prepare ethically grounded professionals capable of fostering holistic human development. By highlighting the interconnectedness of values, ethics, and human growth, this research contributes to ongoing discussions on strengthening character formation and ethical practices in India\u2019s evolving educational landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> Value Education, Ethics, Human Development, NEP 2020, Pre-Service Teachers, Nurturing Ethical Foundation, Teacher Education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-ast-global-color-1-color has-text-color\"><strong>Page No: 1-6<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-ast-global-color-6-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/bijmrd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1-6-2.pdf\">download journal<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Dr. Megha Gokhe DOI Link: https:\/\/doi.org\/10.70798\/Bijmrd\/04011001 Abstract:This study, titled \u201cNurturing Ethical Foundations: Exploring the Nexus of Value Education, Ethics, and Human Development,\u201d investigates pre-service teachers\u2019 perceptions of value-based education within the framework of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.
