| What is Dilemma: Steal It?
Steal It? is a citizenship-based project with strong curricular links to English, Literacy, Drama and PSHE.Pupils work in role as organisers of after-school activities in a busy High School. After a spate of burglaries in the area, various members of the community are blaming pupils who take part in the club. There are some who want the club closed. The only way to keep the club open is to find out who is responsible for these thefts and restore the good name of the club. With the help of pupils in the club, school records and information from the town website, the pupils must investigate the crimes which have been committed and discover who was involved. The Dilemma series is designed to motivate and involve children in 'real life' situations and dramas. Pupils are encouraged to question their role in society and look at how their actions, and those of others, sometimes have far reaching consequences in the community.
