Social And Citizenship Studies For Primary Schools Book 1

The Social and Citizenship Studies for Primary Schools is a carefully structured series designed to help pupils develop good values, responsible behaviour and a strong sense of citizenship. Developed in accordance with the 2025 curriculum by the Nigerian Educational Research and Development Council (NERDC), the series combines factual knowledge with character education and practical life skills. Each book in the course thoroughly reflects the new curriculum, which is organised around several key themes such as identity, leadership, civic responsibilities, national values, social justice, and nationhood, helping pupils understand how their actions affect others and their country.
