Global Perspectives Stage 9: Our Global Future (Capstone)

The lower secondary capstone. Students draw on the whole course to investigate the world’s biggest challenges, synthesise how they connect, evaluate solutions, and build a reasoned manifesto for the future. The fullest expression of all six skills before IGCSE.
Six lessons of about an hour each, every lesson foregrounding one of the six skills (Research, Analysis, Evaluation, Collaboration, Communication, Reflection) and building to a team perspective piece. 15 files: Challenge Overview and Teacher Guide, Skills Rubric, Student Enquiry Journal, and six lesson facilitation guides with decks: provocations, facilitation prompts, source guidance, group roles and scaffolds, no scripts. Skills-led and student-centred; the teacher facilitates, the students do the thinking. Editable Word and PowerPoint files.
One of six Challenges in Stage 9. The full Stage 9 year (all six Challenges) and the whole-programme bundles are in the Verity Education shop.
