Rights Respecting School Award

As we are now in February, we have a new ‘Right of the Month’ focus across the school. This month we are focussing on: Article 16, The right to privacy. .

Mrs Fraser will discuss this during our assembly time next week. In the meantime, it would be great if you could discuss what your child thinks this means.

The articles we are learning about are from the UNCRC.

What is the UNCRC?  

(Taken from the Unicef website, if you would like to find out more please visit https://www.unicef.org.uk/what-we-do/un-convention-child-rights/)

• The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) is an important, legally binding agreement signed by 196 countries (as of 12 July 2022) which outlines the fundamental rights of every child, regardless of their race, religion or abilities.

• The Convention has 54 articles that cover all aspects of a child’s life and set out the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights. The convention is universal—these rights apply to every child and the convention entitles every child to claim them. It also explains how adults and governments must work together to make sure all children can enjoy all their rights.

• The Convention is also the most widely ratified human rights treaty in the world. The Convention came into force in the UK in 1992.
