The unit is designed to be used at the beginning of year 7 and should introduce pupils to citizenship in the national curriculum. The unit broadly addresses many aspects of the key stage 3 citizenship programme of study. It provides a starting point for further work on citizenship and may be followed by any key stage 3 unit in the citizenship scheme of work. The Teacher's guide contains information about planning provision for citizenship according to the needs and priorities of the school. Teachers will want to consider how assessment of pupils' progress will take place during the key stage and how pupils might be involved in the process; they will also want to plan for end of key stage assessment. Information about assessing progress in citizenship is provided in the Teacher's guide.
