UK Parliament: Videos and other resources

UK Parliament has developed two short curriculum-linked video animations to help school children discover more about the House of Commons and House of Lords.

The videos also encourage pupils to think “what will you do?” – introducing them to ways they can get involved with UK Parliament, for example by contacting their local MP about an issue that is important to them.

The videos touch upon the difference between Parliament and government, what happens in the House of Commons and House of Lords Chambers, what democracy means, the role of an MP and member of the House of Lords, what happens during a general election, how laws are made, and the role of the monarch in granting Royal Assent.
