Abstract

Children's rights in diverse classrooms: Pedagogy, principles and practice starts from a seemingly simple question: what implications follow for teaching in schools if our starting point is that children are rights holders and teachers are duty bearers? The book addresses this question through exploring different approaches to teaching and learning about children's rights in different countries. In doing so, Jerome and Starkey present a vision for what focused children's rights education (CRE) might look like and provide scholarly insights into the tensions and challenges that emerge when working to develop practices aimed at advancing CRE in schools.
