These materials support the audit of education for citizenship in primary education. They aim to assist in reviewing existing practice in your school. The materials consist of:
Orientation materials
Good for use at school or department-based in-service days to familiarise staff with the main elements of the framework for education for citizenship.
Audit questionnaires
Four questionnaires to assist schools in accounting for and evaluating current provision for education for citizenship. The questionnaires can also be accessed individually - see below.
Discussion materials and worksheets
Materials for use with pupils to support discussion of education for citizenship and assess the extent to which they have engaged with the ideas.
Primary audit questionnaires
There are four questionnaires, one for each context of development. A full review of existing practice will require using all four together, but you may prefer to select one or two for use in the first year and others in later years.
