Teachers' Corner

Inspiring teaching material about the European Union

Welcome to Teachers’ Corner! This is your one-stop shop for a wide range of teaching material about Europe. The material has been produced by various EU institutions and other government and non-government bodies in order to help young people learn about the European Union and its policies.

These websites, brochures, books, maps and posters explain what the EU is and what it does. They address many of the questions and challenges facing society today, for example, what can we do to protect our environment? How can we live together with peace and security for all?

Whether you’re looking for inspiration for your lessons or concrete information on European history, citizenship, or something as specific as reducing individual energy consumption, you should find useful material here, tailored to the age-group of your students. Just click below on the age group of your class to find the material best suited for your teaching requirements.
