Resources for Schools
This page outlines a series of learning modules developed to support students and educators in exploring questions of privilege, language, media, power, and responsibility.
These modules reflect the core values of Use Your Privilege for Good: inward reflection, ethical awareness, and the belief that how we move through the world matters.
While this page offers an overview of each module, the full classroom-ready resources, including lesson plans, worksheets, activities, and extensions, are hosted in collaboration with our sister organisation, Groundwork.
Groundwork provides a neutral, educator-focused space where these ideas are translated into structured, practical learning tools for educators.
