While ‘Fake News’ isn’t a new phenomenon, there’s still no clear definition of what it is, or isn’t. It can be challenging for primary and secondary school pupils to analyse and understand what ‘Fake News’ is, and Critical Literacy, a whole-school, cross-curricular approach that has the school library at the centre, can help.
This guideline looks at the historic and current contexts of ‘Fake News’, the definition and practice of Critical Literacy and includes case studies and recommended resources for school library staff.
