CCEA and the Northern Ireland Commissioner for Children and Young People (NICCY) have partnered to create this child rights resource hub for teachers and pupils.
Its aim is to provide a range of resources that will help to tell children and young people about their rights, as outlined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). You can find out more about the UNCRC, its relevance to the curriculum, and importance for young people.
To explore the important issue of Children and Young People's Mental Health and Wellbeing, Koulla Yiasouma, the NI Commissioner for Children and Young People (NICCY) and CCEA joined together to host the third live chat for primary pupils and their teachers.
Koulla was joined in the studio by Victoria Murphy from Childline and two young people - Orlagh Marley from the NICCY Youth Panel and Megan McConnell from the Belfast City Council Youth Forum and the Elephant in the Room project. (NICCY)

Pupils explored the topic by sending in questions directly to the panel. These ranged from the opportunities the digital world brings to the dangers it can present.

Just because you’re young doesn’t mean you don’t have rights. That begins with the right to ask and the right to be listened to and taken seriously. Knowing your rights can help you make better decisions and choices. Sometimes, it can even change your life!
When it comes to knowing about your rights and the law it’s important that you can trust what you’re told. That’s why we worked with young people and experts on the law to create REE for young people aged 13 to 17.
