Citizenship Week in class 9

Date: 29th Oct 2021 @ 10:49am

This week, during Citizenship Week, the children learned that being a Citizen means that a person belongs to a particular country, and they have rights, duties and privileges of being a citizen.

Citizenship education aims to develop the capacity of children to participate in a fair and inclusive society throughout their lifetime. It also teaches them the importance of independence of thought and to recognise the power of reflection and debate.

Citizenship education enables young people to explore personal and social values, as well as their peers’, in light of concepts such as diversity, equality, justice and democracy.
