"…education must enable us to respond positively to the opportunities and challenges of the rapidly changing world in which we live and work…"

The National Curriculum, QCA 1999

The Developing Citizenship Project

The Developing Citizenship project supports secondary school teachers, governors and managers in responding to these challenges and opportunities (see the QCA quote, left) by creating practical ideas for:

  • the school curriculum – providing young people with experiences of active citizenship in a globalised society;
  • opportunities to participate – for young people in their school and local community;
  • school policies – reflecting the global context of our local communities;
  • whole-school approaches – to citizenship education with a global perspective;
  • sharing experiences and ideas – between teachers, school managers and governors.
