Perspectives on citizenship, diversity and identity

Created to help teachers promote discussion about the nature of British Values and ideal for SMSC development, this series includes three explanatory videos and three case studies. Key laws and terms are defined; such as the difference between migrants and asylum seekers, and the rights and responsibilities of UK citizens. The three case studies will engage students in some of the most important ethical and political dilemmas of today, and these include the treatment of refugees, governments seeking to revoke citizenship, and children’s human rights in regard to medical ethics.

Eternal Roaming: An Introduction to Human Migration

A history of immigration as eclectic as that of the United Kingdom makes for rich cultural diversity. This video provides background on global migration, explaining push and pull factors and defining ‘refugee’, ‘asylum seeker’ and ‘migrant’, and traces the history of migration to and from the UK.

Migration Case Study: One of Many

Refugee crises often eclipse individual experience and become just about the statistics. This video spotlights the case of Maya Ghazel, a 16 year old refugee of the 2011 Syrian Civil War.

Understanding Human Rights

The United Kingdom places a high value on a number of basic human rights – fundamental freedoms, dignities and protections we should all be entitled to. This video provides background on the development of international human rights conventions, and discusses the difficulties of enforcing these, with and without legislation.

The Life of Charlie Gard

Few things are considered more precious than the life of an infant and the protection of life goes to the core of human rights principles. This video spotlights the case of critically ill infant Charlie Gard and his parent’s fight to allow him to receive cutting-edge medical treatment.

Citizenship in the United Kingdom

Citizenship affects almost every aspect of an individual’s life, and yet it is something many of us take for granted. This video explores what it means to be a UK citizen, within the nation and in a global context, explaining rights and responsibilities and the constitutional monarchy.

When None Give Shelter: Shamima Begum

This video spotlights the case of young mother, Shamima Begum, whose UK citizenship was removed after she became an ISIS bride as a fifteen-year-old.

Tutoyer or Vouvoyer

What’s the difference between ‘tu’ and ‘vous’? How can you tell which one to use when you are speaking to someone you don’t know well, a doctor, a work colleague, a server in a shop or even a friend?

This video answers these questions and more, explaining the history of ‘tu’ and ‘vous’ and the best option to use in different modern contexts.

Le Croissant

Who made the first croissant? How did it make its way to France? What do you need to make your own croissant au beurre fait maison?
