Resumen

Both citizenship and citizenship education have been transformed over the past 20 years as policymakers, academics and citizens have sought to grapple with the implications of globalisation, increased migration, and new information and communication technologies. Education has been central to this response, and this article outlines why schools play such an important role in preparing children and young people to become citizens. The article then describes some of the latest trends in Europe towards teaching the next generation about citizenship, and concludes by highlighting some of the issues that will require leadership from head teachers in the coming years
