Unit 16: Celebrating human rights - citizenship activities for the whole school
This unit illustrates how schools can use a specific annual event to support citizenship education. International Human Rights Day, on 10 December, provides an ideal opportunity for young people to focus on this important aspect of citizenship. This unit is a starting point for planning the involvement of the whole school in human rights education and for engaging pupils, teachers from a variety of subjects, and adults from outside the school in such activities.
