The link teacher for the Department of Education is Mrs Saporita - Clark.

On 14th November 2024, the Department for Education had their first meeting with other members of the Forward as One Pupil Advisory Board.  This meeting took place via zoom.  In the meeting, the children discussed the meaning of the word Education (the process of teaching or learning - especially in a school.  The knowledge that you get from this teaching and learning process).

We discussed that members of the board would be learning more about Article 29 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) which states that children's education should help them fully develop their personalities, talents and abilities.  It should teach them to understand their own rights, and to respect other people's rights, cultures and differences.  It should help them to live peacefully and to protect the environment.

The children have shared this right (Article 29) with the school during an assembly and have completed a questionnaire to find out the pupils' thoughts on how this right is met at All Saints'.  The pupils have also been invited to create posters or presentations sharing how they believe that staff at All Saints' meet this right for the children.
