The accessibility plan supports the Rights Respecting principles adopted by Lady Margaret Primary School and is particularly relevant to the following articles:

Article 2 – Without discrimination

The Convention applies to every child whatever their ethnicity, gender, religion, abilities, whatever they think or say, no matter what type of family they come from.

Article 3 – Best interests of the child

The best interests of the child must be a top priority in all actions concerning children.

Article 28 – Right to education

Every child has the right to an education.  Primary education must be free.  Secondary education must be available to every child. Discipline in schools must respect children’s human dignity. Wealthy countries must help poorer countries achieve this.

Article 29 – Goals of education

Education must develop every child’s personality, talents and abilities to the full. It must encourage the child’s respect for human rights, as well as respect for their parents, their own and other cultures, and the environment.

Article 31 – Leisure, play and culture

Every child has the right to relax, play and join in a wide range of cultural and artistic activities.
