Rights Respecting Gold Award

Vauxhall Primary School has been re-accredited with the prestigious Gold Award by Unicef UK’s Rights Respecting School programme.

UNICEF is the world’s leading organisation working for children and their rights. Every child, no matter who they are or where they live, has the right to grow up safe, happy and healthy. 

The UNICEF UK Rights Respecting School Award (RRSA) is based on principles of equality, dignity, respect, non-discrimination and participation. The RRSA seeks to put the UN Convention Rights of the Child at the heart of a school’s ethos and culture to improve well-being and develop every child’s talents and abilities to their full potential.

At Vauxhall Primary School we aim to empower all children to become active citizens and learners, we make sure the best interests of the child are a top priority in all actions. Adults who work in the school are committed to placing the values and principles of the Convention at the heart of all policies and practices. Our whole school community is learning about the convention with a shared understanding to work for global justice and sustainable living.
