Share your story!

Going and Coming is a fantastic resource which supports pupils and teachers in many curriculum areas, but especially Citizenship, PSHE, History and Geography. It can help address issues related to identity, diversity, citizenship and community.
On this site are hundreds of stories - with text, images and voice interviews -  describing the journeys made by children and their families from their countries of origin to Britain. These stories - sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant - address many of the issues familiar today, including asylum seeking, economic migration, poverty and family reunions.


As a teacher you can use existing resources to support your teaching, or download lesson suggestions here.
