Abstract
Recent political events in the Western world emphasize the need for changes in the current education system, in particular a move towards the promotion of values of peace. This chapter will focus on why an exam-driven education system is detrimental to promoting peace in education. It will outline why peace education is necessary and makes tentative recommendations to be implemented in the UK. Strategies are developed through studying Australian and Japanese education systems, drawing key lessons for the UK and other European nations. Consequently, it will reaffirm that providing young people with political and moral literacy will create a learning experience based on their environment and instill a sense of responsibility and respect for common humanity in a globalized world.
