    Biography

    Nick Clough, Cathie Holden

    'This is an invaluable resource and a welcome addition to developing a strong and growing pedagogical base for citizenship education. Indeed, it should be on every school's shelf and be regularly picked up and thumbed for ideas and inspiration by teachers and curriculum co-ordinators, as well as by those involved in teacher education.' - David Kerr, Teaching Citizenship

    'Clough and Holden's new book is particularly helpful for teachers unclear about the boundaries between PSHE and Citizenship and what the new subject "Citizenship" might entail ... The text is jargon-free, teacher-friendly and well laid out, and the activities come from a variety of subject areas, providing a dynamic model of permeation of citizenship. All the resources are provided for simulation games, quizzes, debates ... It is very good value, operating at several levels. I recommend it highly.' - Hilary Claire, Cambridge Journal of Education
