Description: This chapter reports on an exploratory research project examining the impact of Values-based Education (VbE) on “youth at risk” at Toogoolawa School in Queensland, Australia. While much research is available on VbE, demonstrating its holistic effects on student achievement across human development measures, the majority has been done in regular schools. The study at the centre of this chapter represents a rare experiment by which the effects can be measured when VbE is applied to a school that deals exclusively with “at risk” students.
