Developing citizenship in secondary schools : a whole-school resource

With the introduction of a new curriculum in 2000, citizenship education is a key issue for all schools.

This practical guide and resource has been written to provide whole-school approaches to developing citizenship.

It is based around a detailed range of core activities, including the development of a school council, school elections and community links.

It identifies the management and practical issues to be resolved and details step-by-step routes that schools, staff and management need to take to either implement or further develop their citizenship education on a whole schools basis.
