Rights Respecting School

What is a Rights Respecting School?

Park Lane School aims to be a school where all our pupils feel happy, safe and respected. We are working at becomming a Bronze – Rights Committed school.This is an award which is given to schools on behalf of UNICEF.

UNICEF is the world’s leading organisation working for children and their rights. In 1989, governments worldwide promised all children the same rights by adopting the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). These rights are based on what a child needs to survive, grow, participate and fulfil their potential. A summary of these rights are available below.

The ‘Rights Respecting School’ award (RRSA) will help our pupils to grow into confident, caring and responsible young citizens both in school and within the wider community. By learning about their rights our pupils also learn about the importance of respecting the rights of others.

Our Rights Respecting School Leader is working hard to share with all the school community our intentions to become a Rights Respecting School. We are also looking to set up a steering group which will include pupils, staff and parents.
