Abstract: This study aims to identify how to focus on rehabilitating of the students with various lost moral values in education, and training activities. Regarding moral values, many debates have taken place about how they are important and invaluable values that are disappeared in education system in recent years in Albania. Thus, a close look and detailed investigation were needed in the educational programs and practices to figure out those invaluable moral values which are urgently necessary for demonstrating humane manners in educational environments and also those are gained by individuals and the differences in understanding or mentality about values.In this study, a research was done in Madrasa school in Tirana where a model of education structure was used in school program. The participants were the teachers and the students of that school requested anonymity. The main point were that how we can make the other students learn those moral values and equip them with those the values according to the changing world.In this study, a combination of both qualitative and quantitative methods were used to get data through semi-structured interviews with respective students and teachers including directors. This present study demonstrates that except lessons, the extra-curricular activities were considered more important for the development of universal and moral values of the students.The limitation of the present study was that we did not have enough time to interview with each student and teaching staff. The present study reveals the curriculum designers have to put them in the curricula as they are universal values among new generations and also they are needed to teach according to the rapidly changing and must be proportional to any change in the world as well. So, the school administrations ought to organize and apply moral values teaching extra-curricular activities in order to give students a healthy and right mentality regarding universal values.
