Citizenship, Economics & Society

Subject Overview

The curriculum encompasses three major concepts — "Citizenship", "Economics" and "Society", which are connected to the basic knowledge, skills, and values and attitudes related to Strand 1 "Personal and Social Development", Strand 5 "Resources and Economic Activities" and Strand 6 "Social Systems and Citizenship" of the PSHE KLA.

The learning elements of the three curriculum concepts complement each other to help students understand themselves, our society, our country, and the world, as well as the close interactive relationships among them. They also enable students to understand that in an interconnected and interdependent world, they have to contribute to the common good of the world, our country and the local community to promote the building of a community with a shared future for humankind.
