The Citizenship and Community Cohesion Project involved primary and secondary schools working collaboratively on action research projects, developing and reviewing resources to support the delivery of Community Cohesion and Citizenship in Bradford Schools and beyond.

Eight schools presented the work that they were involved in at a symposium on the 30th June, held at the Bradford Academy. The emphasis was on sharing good practice and allowing the 'student voice' to be heard.  The messages from all the pupils were summed up by one statement from a pupil at Queensbury School:

' ALL pupils in ALL Bradford schools should be involved in this kind of work'

Participating schools:

Bradford Academy - Genocide and the Holocaust; Feversham Primary - Sacred Spaces; High Fernley Primary - Slavery: An Unfinished Business and REWIND; Laisterdyke Business and Enterprise College - the Holocaust; Nessfield Primary - Cultural Heritage Trails; Queensbury Secondary School - REWIND; Woodside Primary - Cultural Heritage Trails.

With Thanks

We would like to say a massive thanks to all staff who took part in the projects, who went way beyond the call of duty. Without their enthusiasm and commitment to citizenship and community cohesion, this work would not be the success that it has become.
