Human rights is something I feel very passionate about promoting in schools, since I started teaching A level geography and realised how little students actually knew.
This means that every year, i make a special effort to include lessons for Refugee week, in order to dispel any negative connotations to migration or persecution of anyone that is different. I also want students to know what repression is like around the world, for different religions, sexes, children and adults. It's important to know what a refugee is and not to react negative to a stigma that may have been presented in the papers.
This years theme is a good one. 'Imagine'. There's a lot you can do with this, so I've put together some tasks for our vulnerable group in school to complete throughout the week, along with a live lesson, and I'm making this available here for other students to access if they would like to learn more.
Find the lesson: here and let me know how you are promoting refugee week in school!
Kind Regards,
Miss Cox
