UK National Curriculum citizenship: planning and implementation 2002/03

In over half of the 25 schools, the management of the introduction of citizenship has been unsatisfactory, mainly because the full implications of citizenship as a National Curriculum subject were not understood or, in a small number of schools, because they were not accepted.
