Have your say on what schools should consult children and young people about

The Government is writing some new rules to schools on when they must consult children and young people.

The Government has published a consultation document which says what it thinks should be in these rules. You can read it here. The Government wants to hear what you think should be in these rules. You can read these rules here

The Government thinks that schools should only ask children and young people about:

  • Plans for improving equality in the school
  • The times of the school day
  • The school curriculum.

CRAE thinks that children and young people should be able to be involved in making decisions about all matters that affect them. We think the Government needs to make participation rights in schools much stronger.
