Rights Respecting Update

Calderwood Primary recognises the rights of the child and is currently on a journey to embed the United Nations Conventions on the Rights of Child (UNCRC) throughout the school.

UNICEF has a Rights Respecting Schools Award which puts children’s rights at the heart of school life in the UK and allows schools to demonstrate all the ways that they already celebrate children’s rights. Calderwood achieved the Bronze Award in 2023 and are currently working towards becoming a Silver Rights Respecting School.

The Parent Club Children’s Rights Leaflet has some fantastic information about the UNCRC if you would like to know more about it.
