Citizenship should be learned

David Miliband would have us teach citizenship in primary schools.  I am inclined to think that like the other educational add-ons, sex education, religious education, entrepreneurial education, creative thinking, independent learning, citizenship is something that people should learn.  The best education then is to give pupils and students access to a fair, safe and worthwhile educational system.  They can learn thus to belong to a society that matters.
