New and Updated Resources

Check here regularly to see what's new or updated for education.

  Journey to Justice - Primary Assembly
This set of resources for assemblies includes a very visual presentation aimed at younger learners, stories, songs, and reflections. It has been prepared by Jubilee Debt Campaign for use in Birmingham Primary Schools in May 2008, marking the tenth anniversary of the 70,000-strong chain around Birmingham. However, it can of course be used after this date, and by schools elsewhere, with minor modifications.

Debt, poverty and changing the world
A simple introduction to debt issues, showing the links between debt and poverty, the progress made because of debt cancellation, and how taking action can help.
