Rights Respecting schools

We are a 'Rights Respecting' Silver School

We have been awarded our Rights Respecting Silver Award. This award, granted by Unicef UK to schools, shows that we have made good progress towards embedding children’s rights in the school’s policy, practice and ethos, as outlined in the RRSA Strands and Outcomes.
