UNCRC Article 29 – goals of education

Fabulous efforts by all our wonderful children this week who have worked very hard and achieved their Head Teacher Award.

Rights Respecting Gold ethos demonstrated by all.

Article of the Week Article 35

Hello, This week we invite you to explore one of the rights that does not get talked about so much in schools, Article 35, abduction, sale and trafficking. Due to the nature of this topic we have separated out content in this pack into primary and secondary sections, each with their own short video. This week’s topic needs to be handled sensitively. We would urge you to consider safeguarding procedures in your school and we would strongly recommend completing the activities in class, under the guidance of a teacher, and not setting this pack, or individual activities, as homework. While conversations around Article 35 can be difficult or painful, it is important when educating about children’s rights to explore the Convention as a whole in line with the obligation of duty bearers to ensure that children have knowledge of all of their rights (Article 42).

Article of the Week Article 17

Hello, Information from the media is all around us on websites, phones, apps, social media as well as more traditional forms like radio, podcasts, newspapers and libraries. Article 17 – Access to Information from the Media – states that every child has the right to reliable information from a variety of sources, and governments should encourage the media to provide information that children can understand. Governments must help protect children from materials that could harm them. This week’s pack challenges learners to consider if the information they are receiving is reliable and safe. Firrhill School in Edinburgh have a Rights Respecting podcast that looks at Article 17, as well as 12, and speaks to TikTok content creator Andrew Thomson – an excellent listen!
