Citizenship concepts have been instrumental in developing students’ knowledge and critical thinking since the subject’s inception. While no longer explicitly written distinctly within the national curriculum, these concepts remain foundational to teaching citizenship.

This workshop will allow participants to explore what a concept is and help them to understand how important they are when planning a single, or sequence of lessons, delving into the significance of citizenship concepts in lesson planning. Led by Professor Lee Jerome and Zoe Baker, this 90-minute session will explore this theme through practical examples and provide actionable strategies for classroom implementation.
