We have found that our pupils are capable of taking on an active role as young citizens in our communities. Not only do they have clear ideas about the issues they care about, but they also understand how they can make a difference. Our research reinforces existing evidence that our pupils derive direct benefits from participating in youth social action, including developing leadership, teamwork, problem-solving, and communication skills, as well as a sense of social responsibility, civic self-efficacy, with signs of developing a habit of service.
