What is it?
UK Parliament offers a wide range of free online and print resources, which link to the curricula and support teaching about Parliament, politics and democracy.
UK Parliament’s free resources support the curricula in England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland. They include online and printed activities with accompanying teacher notes, orderable booklets, assembly PowerPoints, games, lesson plans, videos and much more.
The teaching materials, which have been designed to suit different styles of learning, empower primary and secondary educators to teach topics across the Citizenship, History, SMSC, Modern Studies and Politics curricula.
The teaching resources are a perfect accompaniment to UK Parliament’s many other free education services, which include school trips, outreach sessions in your school, teacher training opportunities and special events.
You’ll find a whole range of great topics of study on the website, including British values, black history, debating, the gunpowder plot, women’s Suffrage and equality and diversity.
There are lesson plans, assemblies, resources on holding debates and much more, plus you can even order a Parliament loan box with resources and props to help bring your lessons to life.

“All of the resources that I ordered from UK Parliament are of the highest quality, as well as being informative and relevant.”
