Children Worldwide provides the information, activities and
materials needed to take pupils on an investigation of children's
work, past and present. Its cross-curricular approach enables
teachers to cover core curriculum requirements and teach key
skills in PSHE/Citizenship, Geography, History, English and
Literacy through a contemporary and important issue. The pack
looks at why children work, at the range and nature of this
work and at how what we buy and what we do links us to working
children. It encourages children to consider why child labour
is an important issue, and where it is dangerous and exploitative
and where it enables children to make a positive contribution
to their families.
