1. Middle Stage (Classes 6–8)

1. Prejudice and Discrimination: Understand the impact of prejudice and discrimination on individuals and communities — that treating people unfairly because of their identity causes real harm — and recognise their own responsibility to stand against it
2. Systemic Inequality and Allyship: Move beyond 'treating everyone the same' to understand that structural advantages and disadvantages exist regardless of individual effort or intention; explore concrete examples of systemic inequality (educational attainment gaps, gender pay gap, representation in leadership); distinguish between individual prejudice and structural discrimination; understand intersectionality — how multiple aspects of identity interact; develop informed compassion rooted in evidence rather than pity; explore what being a genuine ally means in practice
3. Global Trade: Why countries trade with each other; imports and exports; how goods travel around the world; that different countries use different currencies
