Promoting Children’s SMSC Development

1988 Education Act UN Convention on the Rights of the Child – ratified by the UK in 1991

UNCRC Article 14 Every child has the right to think and believe what they want and also to practice their religion, as long as they are not stopping other people from enjoying their right. Governments must respect the rights of parents to give their children guidance about this right. Article 29 Education should develop each child’s personality, talents and abilities to the full. It must encourage the child’s respect for human rights, as well as their parents, their own and other cultures and the environment. Article 30 Every child has the right to learn and use language, customs and religion of their family whether or not these are shared by the majority of people in the country where they live.

Pupils should be made aware of the difference between the law of the land and religious law.

The Prevent Duty Departmental Advice for schools and childcare providers Schools should be safe places in which children and young people can understand and discuss sensitive topics including terrorism and the extremist ideas that are part of terrorist ideology, and learn how to challenge them. The Prevent Duty is not intended to limit discussion of these issues. Schools should however be mindful of their existing duties to forbid political indoctrination and secure a balanced presentation of political issues.
