Key aims
The activities in this section are designed to encourage active citizenship. Students will:
- complete a survey
- discuss the purpose and function of petition forms
- explore the issues around selling and eating chocolate in schools
- make informed choices as consumers and as active global citizens
- debate constructively: promote, persuade and justify arguments on Fairtrade, backing these arguments up with evidence
- take an active part in the school’s decision-making process
- take an active part in the life of the school, neighbourhood, community
and the wider world and to take action on issues of fairness and social
justice
Key questions
- now that we know about Fairtrade, what can we do about it?
- how can we plan activities to influence others?
- how can we make it easier for people to buy and sell Fairtrade products at school, at home and in the wider community?
