Teaching Resources

Expert informed, flexibly delivered.

Young Citizens helped lead the design of the UK’s Citizenship Curriculum over twenty years ago so that all young people could leave school knowing how society works, from politics to the law, the economy, the environment and human rights — in the locally and globally.

Teachers don’t have to be experts in the justice system or AI or parliament to take advantage of our interventions: We partner with our democratic institutions and experts directly so lessons are relevant and link to the real world for students.

That’s why we provide high-quality, adaptable, award-winning teaching resource packs.

  • Explore Primary school resources – a library of over 100 lessons, assemblies, and tools on core citizenship and community learning that develop pupils’ spiritual, moral, social, and cultural (SMSC) learning.
  • Explore Secondary school and college resources – ranging from politics lessons and fake news to climate action to the Mock G7!
