Rights Respecting
We are proud to be working towards the Rights Respecting Schools Award by UNICEF, which deepens our pupils’ knowledge of equality, and encourages them to become responsible, active citizens.
There are four key areas of impact for children at a Rights Respecting school; wellbeing, participation, relationships and self-esteem.
- Children are healthier and happier
- Children feel safe
- Children have better relationships
- Children become active and involved in school life and the wider world
Schools involved in the Rights Respecting Schools Award work towards the recognition that they have embedded children’s and young people’s rights in their school’s practice and ethos. Schools are required to implement three evidence-based strands that cover the leadership of the school, knowledge and understanding of children’s rights, ethos and relationships and the empowerment of children and young people.
There are three levels to the Award:
In the Spring of 2024 we obtained Bronze Level. We are currently working within Silver Level.
