Commissioner @NicolaKillean shares a video update for children on her education work — one of the key priorities children and young people asked her to focus on. Story: bit.ly/3MDsznS
Happy Human Rights Day! This year's theme celebrates the connection between rights and happiness. Children have told us about the essentials in life that make them happy. More here: bit.ly/3Mv7Rqe #HumanRightsDay #OurEverydayRights
And that’s a wrap! Today’s #ShoogleLab has come to an end – huge thanks to our Young Advisors & everyone else who took part. Our work around children’s right to be listened to has been thought-provoking, powerful, exciting, and is starting to shake up the education system.
The #ShoogleLab is shaking things up! Our Young Advisors have been working with education leaders, experts & the incredible @DameEvelyn to try to improve the education system — asking challenging questions about why it's important to listen to children.
The day has finally arrived! We’re all set for our first #ShoogleLab. We’re bringing together children, Dame Evelyn Glennie, Prof Laura Lundy & people in power to shake up education. Let’s go!
Excited to welcome @DameEvelyn, Prof Laura Lundy & education leaders tomorrow. Education is one of our priorities, & listening to children boosts learning, wellbeing & confidence. Tomorrow, our Shoogle Lab explores building this into every school. More: bit.ly/3Y4J5zJ
Not long to go! We’re meeting education leaders soon and we want primary children’s voices at the heart of the conversation. Get your shoogle on and help us shake up education. Take part by the end of 27 Nov: bit.ly/44j2ZKS
Ending the two-child cap is a positive step — it will help lift children out of poverty. But with 1 in 4 children in 🏴 already in poverty, much more is needed. @scotgov & @GOVUK must align strategies & centre children’s experiences & voices. Statement: bit.ly/48eexjO
Brilliant Saturday with our Young Advisors — some soon to be first-time voters — exploring elections & shaping questions for our session with education leaders next month. You can have your say too. Take part in our Shoogle Lab activities by 27 Nov: bit.ly/44j2ZKS
