Citizens and Citizenship

We frequently hear the word ‘citizen’ but what does

it really mean Year 6?

A citizen is someone who belongs to a particular

place. For example, the citizens of Isleworth are the

people who live in the town. A citizen is an inhabitant

of any place.

So, what about citizenship? What does that mean?

Citizenship is how we live in the areas to

which we belong. It is all about behaving in

a way that is responsible and considerate

to the area and others living in it.

Going GlobalWe can demonstrate good citizenship, or be a good citizen of the places we
