[Ethical values and human dignity in secondary education and high school according to LOMLOE].
Values, a topic of permanent relevance, especially in the field of Education, permeate and guide it so that their study makes it possible to describe and evaluate its quality. The main objective of this article is to study and analyse the axiological reality in terms of Ethics in the Organic Law 3/2020, of 29 December (LOMLOE). This has been done in order to treat the results descriptively, as well as to draw conclusions from a critical reflection, and to show the way LOMLOE addresses ethical values, referring to human dignity in particular. Our research shows to what extent and in what way the LOMLOE addresses ethical values, and in particular human dignity. The results obtained have profound educational implications and, as a general conclusion, we draw attention to the virtual absence of the word dignity in the sections analysed. Our study shows that the law focuses more on the social consequences of dignity than on its foundation. The values of equality, rights and duties, peace and non-violence, non-discrimination, respect, justice and solidarity stand out above all. But if there is one value that the law is frankly concerned about, it is the one related to gender issues. However, it is surprising that other values, such as the promotion or respect for freedom, are barely mentioned.
