Social action toolkit

This toolkit provides insights and tips to demonstrate how social action plays a strong part in developing a young person’s skillset and what they stand for.

It contains practical ideas, and interactive activities to help build a social action programme which will support students in developing valuable employability skills.

This toolkit features in the employability skills scheme of learning for 14-16 year olds.  They provide a ready-made sequence of curriculum linked resources to help you build progression in your learners' knowledge over time. Visit the Scheme of learning homepage to support with your planning.

The activities aim to

• Provide insights, tips and stories from fellow educators to broaden your knowledge of social action
• Inspire young people to get involved in social action by highlighting the potential benefits to their community and future employers
