B&C Educational’s Chinese Resource Boxes have been flying off the shelf we are very pleased to report. This has surprised us since China no longer appears in the new primary curriculum for key stages 1 & 2. It does however appear in the KS 3 curriculum. What has brought on this surge in orders? We suggest that with China hitting the news more not only with its economic success story but also with its rather less encouraging stance on human rights, teachers are keen for their pupils to find out about China in their geography lessons. Our China Enquirer newspaper introduces readers to all aspect of China from its physical geography to its economic development and rapid industrialisation, but does have stories about its poor record on human rights. Our China resources do encourage pupils and students to gain an informed idea about China’s progress to enable them to interprete the news coming out of China and in the current case out of Hongkong.
