Dignity in School

Children’s Parliament is working with partners to build the capacity of primary schools to take a children’s rights-based approach and become hubs of human rights practice. By adopting a rights-based approach, schools help to make rights real for children by ensuring that their dignity is upheld.  

Dignity in School means children’s voices are heard.

The Dignity in School Hub is the home for our work.

The Hub is an exciting work in progress. With the support of our funders, the Gordon Cook Foundation, we invite you to join us on this journey. You can use the Hub to inform and develop your own rights based practice. Keep in touch and watch it grow and offer more as our collaborative approach continues.  

Building on our first year and partnerships with St John’s RC Primary Edinburgh and Stoneywood PS Aberdeen we are now working with clusters of schools in Clackmannanshire and Dundee.

Get on board with us and help us make primary schools the home for human rights practice and the advancement of the child’s human dignity that we know they can be.
