Woodroffe is now working towards level 2 of the Rights Respecting Schools Award

This little book contains a summary of the United Nations
Convention on the Rights of the Child. Click below to download it.

“A convention is an agreement between
countries to obey the same law. The
United Kingdom of Great Britain and
Northern Ireland agreed to obey
(ratified) the Convention on the Rights
of the Child on 16 December, 1991. That
means our government now has to make sure
that every child has all the rights in the
convention, except the two they have
‘reservations’ about (Articles 10 and 37).”
