A Call to Action on Citizenship and Values Education
On 23 September 2009, the Five Nations Network launched its Call to Action on citizenship and values education.
This proposes seven lines of action to ensure effective education in Wales, England, Scotland, Ireland and Northern Ireland. They are as follows:
- Achieve greater policy engagement at all levels
- Strengthen policy implementation and support structures
- Secure more leaders and advocates
- Improve quality and standards
- Secure more effective training
- Build a more secure and useable evidence base
- Take more time to celebrate successes and achievements
You can download the Call to Action here, in addition to a report on the most recent Five Nations Conference, which took place in Glasgow in 2008.
