Global Action Week for Education
 This week (24 - 30 April) is the Global Action Week for Education, a week of events to highlight that education is a basic human right.
The week is part of the Global Campaign for Education, which began in 1999. Since then, school fees have been dropped in many countries and millions more children can now go to school. The UK has just pledged £15 billion to education but much more than this is needed, including 15 million more teachers, before the chance for a proper education can become a reality for everyone.
So Global Action Week is a great time to check out our new online educational game, Mapping our World. This has been designed for use in schools to help us understand our place in the world and, as we've discovered, it's more than a little bit addictive!
Also, you might want to check out Cool Planet for Teachers, the Oxfam website aimed primarily at teachers looking for information on activities and games that you can do in school.
