Media Literacy Champions
The Student View wants every young person to have access to media literacy education and insights into careers in journalism.
To help achieve this goal, we’ve put together a three part offer: a training program for teachers, a Pop-Up Newsroom initiative, and four PSHE (Personal, Social,
Health, and Economic) Education lessons that you can
use in your classrooms. While your students will get the most out of these materials via full engagement with these three parts, they’re designed to be standalone.
In this pack we have created a number of classroom resources as well as guidance for you to set up your own Pop-Up Newsrooms in your school to help raise
awareness about media literacy and give young people media literacy skills. Our Media Literacy Champions resource is specifically designed for teachers working with students aged 11 to 16, offering them an amazing opportunity to create their very own news reports.
