The Royal British Legion School's Pack -
2008 / 2009
This School's Pack is designed to assist
teachers to introduce specific themes into the
classroom. Although it primarily covers the
History and Citizenship curricula, it can also
be used to support literacy and aspects of PSHE
and Religious Studies. The pack should be used
as a starting point for certain topics, or to
inspire primary and secondary teachers to
complementary routes on tackling these themes.
The six topics support the current areas of
the National Curriculum for the following units:
- History - Key Stages 1 and 2, Units 9,
13, 17 and 20. Key Stage 3, The First and
Second World Wars, including the Holocaust.
- Citizenship - Key stage 1-4: The
identities behind Britain today.
Understanding Human Rights. Challenging
racism and discrimination. War, conflict
and peace. Identity and diversity. Issues
supporting rights and responsibilities.
This year we have produced a main pack and
there are also six posters to generate
activities about History and Citizenship both
inside and outside the classroom. We also
produce a DVD/CD-Rom disk set to provide extra
information, and this is released each
September.
