Description

Collins International Primary Global Perspectives – Building Skills for a Global Future

Collins International Primary Global Perspectives is a dynamic series designed to help young learners develop key 21st-century skills through exploration, reflection, and collaboration. Endorsed by Cambridge Assessment International Education, this series supports the Cambridge Primary Global Perspectives curriculum framework (0838) from 2022, providing a clear pathway to help students understand global issues and think critically about the world around them.

Written by Daphne Paizee and edited by Nick Coates, the series introduces learners to a broad range of global topics that inspire curiosity and encourage active participation. By exploring real-world themes such as families and communities, health and wellbeing, caring for the planet, communication, and food and farming, students learn to apply their knowledge in meaningful, practical ways.

Developing Core Global Perspectives Skills

At the heart of the Collins International Primary Global Perspectives series are six essential skills — analysis, collaboration, communication, evaluation, reflection, and research. Each unit is designed to strengthen these areas through hands-on learning and structured inquiry.

Students are guided step by step to observe, question, and analyze information from multiple perspectives. They learn how to collaborate with others, express their ideas clearly, and reflect on their learning journey. The emphasis on critical thinking helps children become more aware of local and global challenges while developing the mindset needed for responsible global citizenship.

Through practical tasks, students conduct mini-investigations and explore real issues within their school, family, and local environment. Each chapter ends with a final task that brings their learning together, such as conducting research, creating a presentation, or taking action to make a positive impact in their community.

Engaging Content That Inspires Curiosity

The Student’s Book offers rich, engaging content that introduces a variety of topics through international examples, vibrant visuals, and thought-provoking activities. Students are encouraged to explore global themes in age-appropriate ways, making connections between their own experiences and those of others around the world.

Every unit includes opportunities for self-assessment and reflection, allowing learners to think about how they have grown and what they have learned. The variety of sources — including photos, short texts, and real-life examples — keeps lessons stimulating and helps students build confidence in analyzing information critically.

A Seamless Learning Journey

The Collins International Primary Global Perspectives series is carefully structured to ensure smooth progression from one stage to the next. By mastering key skills in the early years, students are well-prepared for the challenges of higher stages of the Cambridge curriculum.

Teachers benefit from a flexible, easy-to-follow framework that promotes active learning, inquiry-based teaching, and meaningful classroom discussion. The focus on skills rather than rote learning helps teachers cultivate independent, reflective learners who can think deeply and communicate effectively.
