citizED Post-16 Strand: Citizenship and Careers Education. Case Study : Citizenship and the Real Game

citizED

An article from the Citizenship Initial Teacher Training Professional Resource Network (citizED) on the links between Citizenship and Careers education.

Introductory extract:

"There are significant opportunities within the curriculum to make exciting links between Citizenship, Careers Education and more broadly work-related learning, enterprise and key skills. Careers education, PSHE (Personal, Social and Health Education), citizenship and financial capability all deal with young people's personal development and contribute to a skills and employability curriculum in schools [See Appendix 1]. This can mean, however, that curriculum managers and co-ordinators experience difficulty when trying to identify and integrate links and that the pupils' experience in this area can be fragmentary and disjointed."
