Your Justice, Your World is a Citizenship education resource to give primary and secondary students a balanced overview of the criminal, civil, family and administrative justice system.
The resource offers a virtual world experience through the lives of residents of a typical town. The activities are highly interactive and engaging with easy-to-read storylines and instructions. All are suitable for Interactive Whiteboard use. A voiceover, glossary and comprehensive teachers’ notes have been provided for use with mixed ability groups.
Your Justice, Your World has been mapped closely to the latest PSHE and Citizenship education curricula.
At Key Stage 2 the activities fulfil key processes such as developing confidence and responsibility and making the most of abilities; preparing to play an active role as citizens; developing good relationships and respecting the differences between people. They also support the Every Child Matters (ECM) agenda and provide many links to Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL).
At Key Stage 3 and 4 the topics cover concepts of democracy and justice, rights and responsibilities, and identities and diversity. The activities also target key processes such as critical thinking and enquiry; advocacy and representation; taking informed and responsible action. Additionally, there are multiple links with Personal, Learning and Thinking Skills (PLTS), Functional Skills, and Social and Emotional Aspects of Learning (SEAL).
A Welsh version, Eich Cyfiawnder, Eich Byd is also available.
