I was wondering if we could use \"Civics\", as it means \"Civic education\". But it sounds ugly: \"Civics, Social & Moral Education\" or \"Civics, and Social & Moral Education\".

I would let as is, even though \"Civics\" includes the concept of \"social and moral education\", according to some curriculum developers:

QUOTE:
\"Civics usually deals with political, moral and social education. Sometimes it is called Governmental studies. A distingtion should be made between civic education and citizenship education. The former
is a part of the latter since this is a comprehensive area including knowledge, competencies and values.\" (Source: http://www.see-educoop.net/education_in/pdf/workshop/bohinj/...
