Psycho-moral development is a topic of interest in both psychology and education. Human development can be defined as the systematic changes and continuities in an individual that occur between conception and death. This implies that there is an orderly, patterned and relatively enduring quality to these changes, whether it is in the individual's structure, thought, behaviour or all above (Loxton, 1005:1). For the purpose of this study, development will focus on the primary school child.
