| We want our students to be able to make clear
and informed decisions to keep them safe, to promote their health
and well-being and to allow them to make the best of their abilities. |
| We want them to develop the knowledge, skills
and attitudes to perform their responsibilities as citizens
and to be aware of their rights. We will help them understand
the world of work and the opportunities for further training
and development so that they can make confident career choices.
|
| Throughout the PD programme, pupils will assess
their own progress in developing their skills and understanding.
During Key Stage three, pupils will be assessed on their progress
in Citizenship and will be included in the annual full report.
A judgement will be made on the basis of pupils' work during
PD Days and on the completion of units of work within other
curriculum areas. Pupils will be working towards, at or beyond
the following standards: |
| 1. Students will
have demonstrated a broad and sound understanding and appreciation
of Citizenship concepts, issues and events explored this year. |
| 2. They have developed
research skills, evaluated sources to judge if they are trustworthy
and are able to bring together information from different sources. |
| 3. Through their
work, they have been able to show understanding of how and why
changes in society take place and have used skills of enquiry,
debate and discussion to clarify and express their views. |
| 4. They have learned
how to participate in school and community activity, undertaking
responsibility for their learning and supporting the work of
others. They have shown the ability and willingness to take
on responsibilities for organising group activity. |
| 5.
They have been able to make the own point of view known with
clarity and confidence while respecting the views of others
while working in groups. |
