The relevance of the topic is motivated by the need to find ways to educate a person capable of committing a moral act by internal motivation, and not by means of outside compulsion. It is indicated that one of the possible ways of educating such a person is the formation of moral awareness in conjunction with the experience of moral behavior. It is substantiated that the methodological basis for revealing the relationship between moral awareness and the experience of moral behavior is axiology as a doctrine of values, as a philosophical theory of values, as a branch of ethics. It is shown that the category of value determines the content of the value “tier” of moral awareness and the value world of a teacher, a schoolchild, which connects them with moral practice, covering moral behavior and moral awareness. It is revealed that values are at the basis of the relationship between moral awareness and the experience of moral behavior. It is shown that one of the most significant is the value of the golden rule of morality.
