Global learning in primary education: moving beyond charity

Abstract

This paper considers small scale research carried out in three primary schools in Nottingham City and Nottinghamshire between September 2012 and April 2013 as part of a larger three year UK Government Department for International Development (DfID) funded project, ‘The world came to my school today’. The overall purpose of this project was to raise awareness of, and promote informed action to address global inequality and poverty.
