Engaging with Social Justice through Creative Activities

Primary School
The Stages Toolkit offers creative exercises for primary school students (KS2) on themes like Identity, Belonging, Empathy, Equality and Social Awareness.
Build educational and life skills while encouraging young people to think critically, yet compassionately, and explore values of respect, responsibility, and collaboration.
Secondary School
The online Stages Toolkit also offers 100 activities with interactive learning tools, storytelling techniques, and other drama strategies.
These include positive ways to explore the 10 Stages of Genocide: how we can identify, resist, and challenge the initial stages of exclusion and discrimination, and develop more respect for others.
