Lesson Packs

Introduction

Lesson Packs support areas of the curriculum whilst encouraging students to discover how diamonds are formed and their impact on local and global communities, particularly those areas where De Beers is the leading miner.

Older children can also explore the role of diamonds across a number of well known global issues - ‘conflict diamonds’ for example.
