Good practice in citizenship education might include: opportunities for children to help define rules in their own classroom or to represent each other in the context of a school council; developing a school environmental policy with children and allowing them to help take care of the school buildings and grounds; inviting parents in to talk about their roles in the wider community, as well as visits from members of the local council, or local and national voluntary bodies, to give children an understanding of their work.
