If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is a citizen of the world Bacon The humblest citizen of all land, when clad in the armour of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error William Jennings Bryan 1860-1925 Pay to all what is due them – taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honour to whom honour is due Romans 13:7
LISTENING, TALKING AND GROWINGdeveloping citizenship themes through stories as part of the R.E. curriculum THE FRAMEWORK FOR PERSONAL, SOCIAL AND HEALTH EDUCATION AND CITIZENSHIP AT KEY STAGES 1 AND 2 “ Personal, social and health education (PSHE) and citizenship help to give pupils the knowledge, skills and understanding they need to lead confident, healthy, independent lives and to become informed, active, responsible citizens. Pupils are encouraged to take part in a wide range of activities and experiences across and beyond the curriculum, contributing fully to the life of their school and communities. In doing so they learn to recognise their own worth, work well with others and become increasingly responsible for their own learning. They reflect on their experiences and understand how they are developing personally and socially, tackling many of the spiritual, moral, social and cultural issues that are part of growing up. They also find out about the main political and social institutions that affect their lives and about their responsibilities, rights and duties as individuals and members of communities. They learn to understand and respect our common humanity, diversity and differences so that they can go on to form the effective, fulfilling relationships that are an essential part of life and learning” The National Curriculum Handbook for Primary Teachers
