Citizenship attracts Ministerial attention

Andrew Adonis spent a morning at Millfield Primary school in east London. The school has attracted attention because of its amazing School Council - which has a real effect on the way the school works. It was chosen as the venue to launch School Council UK's new primary resources. Listening to six year olds discussing how their School Council works and what it has achieved tells us just how responsible young people can be.
 
Lord Adonis was clearly impressed so it seems that Citizenship is in safe hands.
