The learners will be taught about immigration to the areas
surrounding the River Clyde. They will do research on the
topic then plan an event which allows them to exhibit what they
have learned.
This is a good extension project if the topic has already been
touched upon during existing curricular work.

• Learners have developed enterprising skills identified as 4
capacities of CfE
Relevance to curriculum
• Very relevant to social education/citizenship as learners will
gain a clear understanding of the diversity of their
community
• Core skills enhanced and improved through research
• Soft skills enhanced as learners learn to work together as they
