UNICEF UK works with schools across the United Kingdom to transform education through children’s rights, giving young people the best possible chance to grow up empowered, inspired and ready to make a difference in the world.

The Rights Respecting Schools Award does this by placing children’s rights at the heart of school policy and practice, enabling leaders and teachers to strengthen pupil’s sense of belonging and voice, and to create an environment for great learning.
