Review :
For schools which want to move on from good to outstanding and for those which are clearly far from citizen-rich, this book is an invaluable handbook and guide and with a wealth of reference sources, organisations and websites. If you have got time and space for one book on citizenship, this is it. Developing Citizens represents an invaluable addition to the fund of knowledge and wisdom around citizenship education. If you are involved in delivering citizenship at secondary or post-16 level, or interested from a senior leadership or whole school perspective, then this book is essential reading.
