Global Citizenship IGCSE (4GLO) Edexcel


From Edexcel's exam specification :
The Edexcel International GCSE in Global Citizenship qualification aims to: 
-  introduce and develop student
    understanding of key issues
    affecting the global community
-  develop students’ understanding
    of how communities interact locally,
    nationally and globally  
-  enable students to participate in an
    activity, understanding its impact in
    a range of scales  
-  ​develop student skills of analysis
    and evaluation of different
​    perspectives in relation to global issues. "  
Good basic common sense and a genuine interest in practical politics and citizenship issues are essential. Also fundamental is an ability to write well, as there are some longer answers and an essay in this exam. It is vital that students are capable of presenting views which are not their own in the essay. This is why, when I teach it, my groups participate in a great deal of discussion and debate.

Part of the course is a practical, community-based project on an issue of the student's own choice. Citizenship in action! They need to plan, carry out and reflect on this project and write about it in the exam.

Excellent for those who enjoy research, writing and participating in democracy.
