BEACONS: the Development Education Centre for Herefordshire and Worcestershire.
BEACONS is a Development Education Centre working in Herefordshire and Worcestershire. We provide development education resources for schools and community groups, supporting global citizenship in the classroom and the community.
Are you a KS1 or KS2 teacher looking for development education resources to bring the global dimension into the curriculum? Try our Topic Boxes for key stage-linked materials on a wide range of development topics. Use our sets of Artefacts to make development education and global citizenship come alive.
Are you a Sixth Form teacher wanting to discuss development issues and global citizenship with your older students? Learn about our Sixth Form Conferences and our Guides to Climate Change and to Global Poverty.
Are you a member of the community who is concerned about development in all its aspects and would like more information and contact with others who share your views? Use our Links to find out about wider resources for development education, events relating to development education and development education organisations. Look at our Background to World Affairs for a comprehensive and frequently updated overview of what is going on in the world right now.
BECOME A MEMBER and borrow the artefacts/Topic Boxes free for half a term and qualify for reduced fees at the annual conferences.
