'Citizenship is more than a subject. If taught well and tailored to local needs, its skills and values will enhance democratic life for all of us, both rights and responsibilities, beginning in school and radiating out.'
Bernard Crick, National Curriculum Citizenship, 1999
Citzenship supports the development of key skills and confidence to enable pupils to make their own decisions and take responsibility for their lives and the communities they belong to.
At Berridge, the knowledge, skills and understanding outlined in the Department for Education Citizenship programme, are taught within other areas of the curriculum.
