Here is a simple explanation of passive voice from the Grammarly Handbook: http://www.grammarly.com/handbook/organization-and-development/text-level-measurements-adequate-writing/3/passive-voice/
For your sentence, the subject is educational changes, but the actor is the educational system. Try this:
The new education system made several major educational changes that emphasize development of student character.
