EXPLORING FREEDOM
High School
Courses
Enhance your understanding of Charter rights and freedoms with our developing high school courses.
It is crucial for Canadian students to know their rights and freedoms. The Justice Centre is thrilled to partner with parents and educators to educate students on human dignity, fundamental rights and freedoms, and Canadian political institutions that safeguard these.
Our courses not only educate students about these important democratic principles, but also explain their vital importance and foster critical thinking and discussion around them. The courses will equip the next generation of Canadians to value the Charter as a landmark in Canada’s ongoing pursuit of freedom and empower them to productively participate in this critical endeavor.
Although still under development, the courses have already made a significant impact, with the first courses having receiving lots of positive feedback from students and educators alike. The first two courses, which explore the nature and value of freedom of expression and freedom of conscience and religion, respectively, are currently both under review and set to be released in early 2025.
Upcoming courses will explore the other two fundamental freedoms under section two of the Canadian Charter, namely, freedom of peaceful assembly and freedom of association. These courses are scheduled for release around mid-2025.
In the meantime, consider previewing the first module and incorporating the courses into your students’ upcoming academic schedule.
