Rights Respecting School

Letham Primary School has completed the first step towards becoming a Rights Respecting School (RRS). We have completed the registration process and during our Get Together this morning (17.09.18) we discussed our next steps.

We need to set up a pupil-led steering group and have an action plan to ensure that:

• The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) underpins our values and decision making in school
• The whole school learns about the CRC and respects the rights of others
• Children are empowered to become active learners and active local and global citizens.

Children across the school will be able to volunteer to join the RRS Steering Group - another great opportunity to develop key Leadership skills. We also need parent and staff volunteers to sign up too!
