Citizenship at LGGS

Citizenship is at the heart of every community and is found in many different forms throughout the school.

Citizenship lessons aim to enable students to become responsible citizens who make a positive contribution
to society at all levels.
Students are taught
how to develop into confident individuals who are able to live
safe, healthy and fulfilling lives.
Citizenship also aims to enable students to be successful learners who enjoy learning, make progress and achieve.
Some of the Citizenship lessons explore PSHE topics as well as Careers education.
