In Focus: Who Runs Our Country?

Introduce your pupils to politics and why it is important to vote, with our special edition.
 


In Focus: Who Runs Our Country?

This year marks the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta, as well as one of the most contentious general elections of our time. First News takes an in-depth look at what an election is, how it works and why it’s important to vote in our 32-page special edition.

The 2015 UK general elections was the most unpredictable in decades, with the Conservatives winning by a landslide despite polls predicting a hung parliament. This is a great time to talk to your pupils about the complexities of British politics and give them an idea of what to expect in future election campaigns.

In Focus: Who Runs Our Country? takes readers right back to the beginning, to explain how democracy works in the UK, and how it compares to other political systems around the world.

We take a look at our political parties, their leaders and what they stand for; the structure of our government and what it takes to become a Prime Minister.

Join us as we explore the history of voting and governments over time. Then, go behind the scenes at 10 Downing Street and discover what a day in the life of a Prime Minister is

really like.

First News’ In Focus: Who Runs Our Country? is an essential educational resource that will engage your pupils in politics

to using simple timelines, fascinating campaign posters and photos in a premium publication.
