Teachers & students

The Crick Centre is committed to promoting the public understanding of politics.

It is not committed to promoting any one single vision of politics or to any one policy or party.

If you are a teacher who wants support and assistance with teaching citizenship or politics at any level then please do get in touch.

Our resources

Watch our latest Knowledge Exchange video (funded by the ESRC) on Why do we hate politics?

We have also published a two-page Why do we hate politics? factsheet to accompany the video and for classroom discussion.

 

Our relationships:

The Crick Centre has a superb relationship with a number of outreach and political engagement organisations (from the House of Commons Outreach Department to ‘Art in the Park’ and from the Political Studies Association to ‘Votebooster’) who are all committed to educating and empowering young people.

The Political Studies Association, the Citizenship Foundation and a host of other organisations offer teaching resources and downloads; the BBC offers a massive range of podcasts and videos that explore critical issues in an informative and engaging manner; while University Centres like the Sydney Democracy Network also offer a great range of lectures and videos that can be used to bring teaching alive.

This is all before we even get to the global network of organisations that we work with that are always willing to go in and speak in schools and colleges about what their organisation does and why it matters (and the challenges they face).
