Schoolchildren in Scotland

Schoolchildren in Scotland are to be taught their rights and responsibilities as citizens in subjects across the curriculum. A national framework on education for citizenship from three to 18 years is recommended in the Education for Citizenship in Scotland report launched last week by deputy minister for education and young people Nicol Stephen. He said everything a school does 'should reflect positive citizenship'. The report was developed by a national review group chaired by Professor Pamela Munn of Edinburgh University.
