Rights Respecting School
Bronze Award
We are proud to have achieved the Rights Respecting Schools Bronze Award from UNICEF UK, marking our commitment to placing the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) at the heart of our school’s values and ethos.
Being a Rights Respecting School means that we are dedicated to creating a safe, inclusive and respectful environment where every child’s rights are understood, taught, respected, and promoted. This helps our students develop a strong sense of equality, fairness and social responsibility — empowering them to be confident, active global citizens.
What Does the Bronze Award Mean?
The 'Bronze: Rights Committed' stage is the first step in the Rights Respecting Schools Award (RRSA) journey.
Achieving Bronze means that:
- Our school has made a clear commitment to the values and principles of the UNCRC.
- Staff, governors and the wider school community are beginning to develop a shared understanding of children's rights.
- We are working collaboratively with students to embed a rights-based approach into school life.
- We have started to plan how we will teach and promote children's rights across the curriculum and in everyday practice.
- Achieving this award shows that we are serious about building a culture where children’s rights are learned, respected and lived by all. It also lays the foundation for our journey toward the 'Silver: Rights Aware' award and, eventually, the 'Gold: Rights Respecting' status.
We look forward to continuing this journey with our school community and ensuring that every child in our care feels valued, respected and heard.
