childrens voice

It is important that children are given a voice in society as well as at home and in schools. There are many ways of involving infants in decision making and this should be widely encouraged to make them accountable and enthusiastic about their own learning, achievement and environment.

How can this be achieved in schools?

• By involving children in creating their own environment where they will feel happy and safe,
• Letting them make their own rules, which they think would be important within the classroom setting
• A classroom charter to partake in and sign
• A school council where class representatives can put forward ideas and create change
• Encouage debating on topics
