Then, we put a Steering Group together, consisting of teachers, parent, community leader and several children from Primary 4 -7. We accessed the RRSA website and spoke to our local Children’s Rights and Information Officer to guide us on our way. One of our teachers visited a Children’s Rights Showcase in Glasgow to get ideas and to speak to people already on the journey. The Steering Group 2012-13 What we did: From August 2012 we decided that all of the monthly assemblies would focus on an Article from the CRC (UN Convention of the Rights of the Child). The whole school and parents were then invited to the assembly to see what the children had learned. The Steering Group met regularly and produced an Action Plan to help the school achieve Level 1 status of the RRSA. The Steering Group developed a whole school awareness of the CRC by creating and developing a noticeboard at the Reception
