English programme subjects (ENG04‑02)
Interdisciplinary topics
Democracy and citizenship
English programme subjects address the interdisciplinary topic of democracy and citizenship by helping pupils develop an understanding that their perception of the world is culture-dependent. By learning English, pupils can encounter different societies and cultures by communicating with others around the world, irrespective of linguistic or cultural background. This can pave the way for new ways to interpret the world, help cultivate curiosity and involvement, and help prevent prejudice.
