Reflecting on the success of the Sustainable Citizenship Conference
It was fantastic to be joined by so many partners, champions and teachers over the course of the three day Sustainable Citizenship Conference with UK Parliament in November. It was also great to launch ACT’s 20th anniversary of supporting Citizenship education in schools nationwide and be part of Parliament Week.
The 'Having a Say' Citizenship resources have been developed by ACT with support from the Historical Association, the Cabinet Office and the Government Equalities Office. They form part of a wider set of history and Citizenship resources to celebrate 100 years of votes for women.
CITIZENSHIP: USING THE EVIDENCE OF THE HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT – A TEACHER’S GUIDE
written by members of the English Heritage Education Team, 2004, English Heritage, ISBN 1 – 85074-857-8
is an imaginative, well thought-out cross curricular resource. It starts with local history, which is relevant in the Foundation Stage and part of both KS1 and 2 primary history PoS, and demonstrates citizenship education working from the past to the present and into the future.
