There are merits of acquiring education and demerits of having low or little education, like little knowledge is dangerous. However, it depends on whether the education is with appropriate standards of ethics (ethical education) or without appropriate ethical values. Furthermore, it is important to decide what are the standards of certain ethical system in ethical education and how much is the implication and real life application of education.
No doubt, the education, whether early, middle or higher has significant impact for someone wishing to adopt the moral values in any society; and acquiring the morality and ethical attributes mainly relates to home, family, schooling, personal nature, friendship, learning, exposure, society etc, it is possible that a person with a low or little educational level practices and enjoys better moral values mainly by wide exposure in society compared to someone highly educated.
What is your opinion about the impact of education on moral values?
Hi
No doubt there is a direct impact from education on people's moral values. Education raises people to be more rational . The evidence exists in our holy Qur'an "Allah will raise up in ranks those who believed among you and those who have been given knowledge. Allah is Aware of what you do". Thanks for this question.
