Rights Respecting School
We are very pleased to announce that Elmgreen is a Rights Respecting School and that we have been awarded the Bronze Award for the UNICEF Rights Respecting School. The Bronze: Rights Committed Award is the first official stage of the UNICEF UK Rights Respecting Schools Award (RRSA). It shows that Elmgreen is committed to starting our journey toward putting the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) at the core of its planning, policies, and ethos.
A Rights Respecting School is a community where children’s rights are heard, taught, practised, protected and promoted. Children, and the school community, learn about children’s rights by putting them into practice every day.
At Elmgreen it is not just about what children do but also, importantly, what adults do. In a Rights Respecting School, children’s rights are promoted; and adults and children work towards this together.
