Ethics and Citizenship
Published in partnership with the Institute for Global Ethics, this flexible and practical toolkit is ideal for teachers delivering the social and moral responsibility strand of the Key Stage 3 and 4 Citizenship Programmes of Study.

The resource helps students to think about and make decisions on ethical issues and moral dilemmas through its stimulating photocopiable activities. It provides a logical framework for applying specific decision-making skills to any social issue or moral dilemma students may encounter in their individual lives and wider communities. Includes an easy-to-use matrix that maps this resource to the Programme of Study and QCA Schemes of Work for Citizenship. Ethics and Citizenship is based on the widely adopted course designed by the Institute for Global Ethics.
