UNICEF Article 12

Respect for the views of the child

We listen to children. We do this by observing and interpreting children’s behaviours and through interacting with children. We regularly consult with children to find out their views. We use Talking and Thinking floor-book techniques to capture children’s voices and feelings through speaking, drawing and writing. Our child is a citizen with rights. We aim to support children to learn about rights, learn through rights and learn for rights, in a place where children’s rights are learned, taught, practised, respected, protected and promoted.
