He is an acclaimed UN-SDG youth energy ambassador & negotiator for Europe and North America; having recently returned from Cop 28. Josh shared his career journey from being a child in the Highlands to advising government ministers and founding The Divergent Thinktank.

Read MoreDECEMBER RIGHT OF THE MONTH
Published 13/12/23Our Right of the Month examines Article 14. Now that we are in the throes of the festive season , we must remember and respect all religions and beliefs that are featured in our school. It’s fantastic to have a school of such mixed faiths, beliefs and cultures that can all come together at different points across the school year.
Article 14 of the UNCRC says that children and young people are free to be of any or no religion. Their parents can help them make decisions around religion, but:
• a parent can’t force a child or young person to adopt a religion, and
• a parent can’t force a child or young person to stop following a religion.
No religious discrimination
Children and young people shouldn’t be discriminated against because of their religion. They should be treated the same as everyone else, no matter what they believe.
Freedom of thought
Article 14 also covers the right to freedom of thought. This is the right of a person to have their own ideas, thoughts, opinions and beliefs― and for nobody to be able to stop them from holding them. A person has the right to keep their beliefs private, and shouldn’t be forced to reveal them.
Pupils should access the Right of the Month survey and quiz using the RRSA tile on your pupil portal.
