  • Active citizenship, making a positive difference

Description

In this unit pupils examine what community means and the role it plays at their school. They explore what charities and NGOs do in their community and identify how they can become active citizens.

Building on their learning of how they can make a positive difference in their communities this unit continues to develop pupils’ knowledge of social issues and the role citizens and organisations have in creating positive change. This knowledge helps pupils to understand how citizens can work together to improve communities and wider society and how they can make their voice heard by those in positions of power.
