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
