We are a GOLD Rights Respecting School!
We have successfully achieved UNICEF's UK Gold Award for our Rights Respecting work at Rack House Primary.
What is the Rights Respecting Schools Award?
The Rights Respecting Schools Award puts children’s rights at the heart of school life in the UK.
The UK Committee for UNICEF (UNICEF UK) works with schools in the UK to create safe and inspiring places to learn, where children are respected, their talents are nurtured and they are able to thrive. Our Rights Respecting Schools Award embeds these values in daily school life and gives children the best chance to lead happy, healthy lives and to be responsible, active citizens.
Using the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) as our guide, we are working with more UK schools than almost any other organisation. Over 1.6 million children in the UK go to a Rights Respecting School and over 5,000 schools up and down the country are working through the Award. Schools work with us on a journey to become fully Rights Respecting.
The Award recognises a school’s achievement in putting the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child into practice within the school and beyond.

Our Rights Respecting Steering Group are proud to play a crucial role in continuing to embed our UNICEF Rights Respecting Schools Award (RRSA) Gold standard into every aspect of school life.
Our Mission
The mission of our Rights Respecting Steering Group is to create a safe, inspiring, and inclusive environment where every child is respected, their talents are nurtured, and they are able to thrive. We are committed to ensuring that children's rights are at the heart of our school’s ethos and culture.
By maintaining the Gold standard of the Rights Respecting Schools Award, we aim to ensure that every child at Rack House Primary School can enjoy their rights and reach their full potential in a caring and nurturing environment.
Our child-led, diverse team of children, teachers and parents drive the agenda for change and improvement across school.
