Global Citizenship is not an additional subject, but a way of teaching the existing curriculum, which promotes social justice and equity. This handbook explains Global Citizenship and develops its principles into clear, practical pointers for use in school. By discussing the issues, ideas and approaches in this handbook, users will be able to explore and develop their own understanding of Global Citizenship. Teachers will be able to bring its concepts into their educational practice, through every subject area, into assemblies, and across the whole school. The handbook will be a valuable tool for classroom teachers, head teachers, teacher educators, student teachers and home school educators. It will also be of interest to non-teaching staff, governors/school-board members, and parents.Global Citizenship: The Handbook for Primary Teaching contains: an exploration of issues for In-Service Training, and strategies for implementing whole-school change; ideas and activities for assemblies and classroom work; specific sections mapping Global Citizenship to subject areas for England, Scotland and Wales; a wide range of activities to deliver subject areas including Citizenship/PSHE, PSD and PSE through Global Citizenship; lesson plan and photocopiable resource material to support Literacy/English in the classroom; material relevant to Environmental Studies 5-14; ideas and guidance on incorporating Global Citizenship into the QCA Geography Schemes of Work; a comprehensive list of useful books for children and teachers, resources, weblinks and contact addresses
