More explicitly, character education is an essential platform for social control based on self-awareness. Based on the research that I have done there turns out to be a significant relationship between the successful application of character education in schools with the creativity of teachers. That is, the more creative a teacher is in implementing character education in schools, the higher the success of character education for students. Based on that conclusion, the authors suggest that every teacher has high creativity in the application of character education in schools. The trick is always to deepen the notion of creativity, the characteristics of creative teachers, and ways to develop creativity. Thus it is expected that the application of character education in schools runs effectively and efficiently.
