Currently, we see a future for our children and young people where extreme and entrenched income and wealth inequality are seen as problematic, yet an unavoidable consequence of economic growth. Discussions around social mobility embed the belief that the only barrier to success in the UK is a lack of hard work, despite all the evidence that shows this to be untrue. We develop new resources to be used in schools and colleges to support teachers and students to question these assumptions.

Employment Rights: An overview for young people by young people

The plan and resources for this lesson were produced by a group of young people who attended a series of workshops facilitated by The Equality Trust and supported by The Alex Ferry Foundation. They are mainly suitable for 15/16 year olds. The lesson plans have been produced in an effort to support teachers in engaging with issues around employment rights and could be used in the PSHE or Citizenship curricula. While we hope that the plan as written will enable you to engage with the content, there is no expectation that these will be used as scripted delivery. Do feel free to amend them as you see fit to suit the needs of your students in your classes. All we ask is that the Trust and the Foundation are acknowledged. It would be great to hear from you about your ideas for engaging with the content.

Cat Van Saarloos has adapted some of our schools resources to be used in teaching Core Maths - one that covers the first two lessons and another that covers lesson three as well as links between happiness and inequality. This resource has been taken from for the Equality Trust website and adapted for use remotely. Some graphs have been added from the ONS. There is quite a lot of material here so you made need to do this over two lessons or remove some of the slides if you are short on time. The activity is aimed at 14+ and could be used in L3 Core Maths, Citizenship, Business, Social Science and so on.
