Cost of Living Crisis

MORE ADDED! This pack contains 4 x lessons with a focus on how the current cost of living crisis is affecting the lives of UK people - and why we are suffering a cost of living crisis in the first place.

1. A detailed, differentiated and editable PSHE lesson which will last you roughly an hour (possibly an hour and a half) all about the current cost of living crisis. Inflation and the reasons behind it, both domestic and international, are explained in detail. Personal cases are examined, as well as the impact on people’s mental health. Can be used with KS3 or KS4 as there are a wide variety of tasks, all heavily differentiated.

2. A detailed, differentiated and editable Citizenship lesson which will last you roughly an hour (possibly an hour and a half) all about how effective striking is as a method of direct action. This is a brand new lesson, with both historical examples and a focus on the summer 2022 rail strikes. Can be used with KS3 or KS4 as there are a wide variety of tasks, all heavily differentiated.

3. A detailed, differentiated and editable PSHE/Citizenship/Finance lesson which meets all the latest 2020-2022 PSHE guidelines and will last you up to 90 mins. The lesson introduces what the economy is, what is happening with the UK economy currently, what key terms such as recession, growth and austerity mean, why interest rates have risen and what it all means for the everyday Brit’s pockets.

4. You need no previous knowledge to teach this as it comes with all information needed. All about how we can eat healthy, on a budget, especially during the cost of living crisis.
   Activities are scaffolded, there is a detailed and colourful PowerPoint, clip tasks with questions and answers, worksheets, creative task, match-up tasks, signposting to further help agencies and charities, clear outcomes and also literacy and partnered activities.
