UN convention on the Rights of the Child. At Lighthorne Heath Primary School, we recognise achievement in putting the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child at the heart of our practice to improve well-being and help all children realize their potential. Our school ethos reflects the principles of equality, dignity, respect, non-discrimination and participation.
Children's rights are learned, taught, practiced, respected, protected and promoted in our school. We aim to create a happy school where the learning atmosphere is calm, happy and relaxed, and conducive to high achievement.
We believe that every child should learn the skills for life long learning and be supported to develop as good citizens who contribute fully to their community. For the children to reach their full potential we need to work in partnership with you as parents, carers and colleagues. Helping children to do their best is vital.
We will work in partnership so that all of us understand what children are learning and are able to achieve. Our school operates in partnership with Sydenham Primary School. Staff, governors and children work together to harness each other's strengths and expertise so that children are offered the best possible education.
