Contribution
This paper outlines and discusses the changes and evolutions in educational policies and
discourses regarding citizenship education in England in the last decades, including a critical
analysis of citizenship as a statutory national curriculum subject in England for pupils from
ages 11 to 16 years, since 2002. Assuming a the need for a whole‐school approach to
citizenship education, three case‐studies on secondary schools will be used to illustrate how
social and emotional aspects of learning and relationships within the schools can serve as a
vehicle to develop the necessary skills for citizenship.
