Your Rights
At Hafod Primary School, we work hard on promoting the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. The universal rights of children are enshrined in the United Nations Declaration of the Rights of the Child. We are a Rights Respecting School and the first school in Wales to receive the Level 2 award.
In November 2022, the work we have done to ensure that children's rights are at the heart of our curriculum was recognised by our UNICEF assessor. We were reaccredited for the Gold Rights Respecting Award. This was all down to the hard work and commitment of our staff and pupils. da iawn pawb!
There are 54 articles laid down under the Convention that have to be provided by adults. They are unconditional. However, the Convention also refers to the responsibilities of children. Responsibilities accompany rights, and our school rules are based upon them.
