This educational program aims to increase awareness of legislation surrounding children's rights, familiarize staff with UNCRC, and connect GIRFEC with HWB. It emphasizes the importance of a rights-based culture in schools, engaging pupils in school life, and fostering relationships with various stakeholders. The initiative addresses the international focus on the need for children's rights, highlighting the high number of children in poverty in the UK. It explores the universal, unconditional, and protected nature of children's rights and the responsibilities of duty bearers. The program includes interactive activities linking rights to well-being indicators, lesson ideas, and practical tools for introducing learners to Rights Based Learning. Various scenarios are discussed to identify articles from the UNCRC that are realized or denied, emphasizing the rights to a good standard of living, education, relaxation, and privacy. The program aligns with the Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014, promoting children's rights and extending the powers of the Commissioner for Children & Young People.

  7. When something is called a right, it means that nobody can take it away from you.  It is yours, it protects you, and helps you to have a good life • Rights are a list of promises to children and young people to keep us safe  • Rights are to make sure that children are treated fairly and looked after properly Oxford Online Dictionary: A moral or legal entitlement to have or do something 8

  9. The language of Rights • Children’s Rights are universal: • apply to all children from birth to eighteen years of age; • children have full entitlement to their rights regardless of their race, disability, gender, religion and belief and sexual orientation, as outlined in the Equality Act (2010). • Children’s Rights are unconditional: • they are not dependent upon responsibilities; • they are not something to be earned, used as a reward and they cannot be removed. • Children’s Rights are protected: • adults are duty bearers, children are not; • the Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014 outlines the responsibilities of duty bearers.

  10. Rights-Holders and Duty-Bearers

  11. Important points to remember: • rights do not mean that children and young people always get their own way, it is important that clear and fair boundaries are set; • children and young people still have responsibilities but these are not directly linked to rights; • children and young people can enjoy their rights and enable others to enjoy theirs through demonstrating respectful attitudes and responsible actions.

  12. Children and Young People (Scotland) Act 2014 • Implications of the Act for children’s rights: • Scottish Ministers will have to consider children’s rights whenever they take decisions. • Scottish Ministers will have to promote children’s rights. • There will be a reporting duty on Scottish Ministers and other organisations who support children. • The powers of Scotland’s Commissioner for Children & Young People will be extended.
