Teaching Migration in the UK – A Complete Lesson Pack (A2 Level)

In times like these, when racism and intolerance are sadly on the rise, it is our responsibility as educators to create spaces of dialogue, understanding, and empathy in our classrooms. Tackling sensitive topics such as migration is not always easy, but it is essential if we want to give our students the tools to think critically and communicate respectfully.

This ready-to-use lesson pack will help you guide your students through a discussion about migration in the UK, using clear, structured materials adapted for learners at an A2 level.
