Promoting Rights in Schools: providing quality public education
A resource pack aimed at actively engaging parents, children, teachers, unions, communities and local civil society organisations in collectively monitoring and improving the quality of public education, PRS offers a set of practical tools that can be used as a basis for mobilisation, advocacy and campaigning. The pack provides four key resources:
1) a charter of 10 rights which, when fulfilled, will enable all children to complete a good quality education;
2) a participatory methodology for: using the charter; collecting, analysing and using data; and consolidating information into ‘citizens reports’ that could be used for the development of Action Plans or to encourage discussions and reviews at local, district and national levels;
3) a series of education- and rights-based indicators organised in a survey format to enable users to capture information in a systematic manner;
4) a compilation of key international human rights references providing the foundations and legitimacy of the charter and reports.
