Key Stage 3 Geography and Sustainable Development
Stimulus - Activity 2
Student voices
Included in the Government's Response to the Sustainable Schools Consultation Paper (the full report can be downloaded from TeacherNet) are student responses to two questions:
- What concerns you about the way that people treat the world? (See page 2)
- If I were Prime Minister... (See page 23)
For a topic of your choice, think about how you would incorporate students' views and opinions and questions in your scheme of work.
In relation to SD, do you agree that taking account of the 'student voice' is not only worthwhile, but essential?
