Children’s Images of a Distant Locality
Anna Disney
Senior Lecturer, School of Education, Nottingham Trent University

Children’s perceptions of a distant locality are gauged before the introduction of a link with a school in that distant locality. Changes in the perceptions are recorded after a variety of exchanges between the schools. The implications are considered for children, teachers and teacher trainers.

Keywords: children, perception, distant localities, global citizenship, geography, school links
