A complete Citizenship worksheet pack explaining what local government is, what councils do, and how councillors and mayors make decisions in a local area.
Includes: animated whiteboard explainer video, guided notes sheet, worksheet activities, case study, challenge tasks, and full teacher answers.
This pack introduces the structure and purpose of local government, helping students understand how councils run services such as bins, parks, libraries, housing and transport. It explains the roles of councillors and mayors, how decisions are made, and why local democracy matters — all directly linked to GCSE Citizenship.
Guided notes and structured activities break down key ideas clearly, with real examples of local issues and how councils respond to community needs. A case study shows how budget pressures and differing priorities shape local decision‑making.
Challenge tasks encourage students to evaluate how effective local government is and why it plays a vital role in everyday life. A full teacher answer sheet supports KS3, KS4 and GCSE progression.
