Rejected petition Curriculum for life

More details

We believe that the place of citizenship education and PSHE in the curriculum should be radically overhauled through a youth-led UK-wide review; they are really important for young people’s growth and development as they teach vital life skills and can be the first steps to engaging young people in political life. Teaching staff should be specifically trained to a national standard to deliver citizenship education following this review.
Now that you have decided what to campaign on, it’s time to start campaigning.
What is it we want?
• We want a Youth Led Review of Citizenship and PSHE education
• We want a radical overhaul of the current Curriculum which we feel fails us
• We want a new curriculum that includes the following subjects:
• Political education
• Sex and Relationships education (SRE)
• Cultural awareness
• Community cohesion
• Finance skills
• Sustainable living
• Citizenship Education Test
