Welcome to Dean Park Primary

Creating a learning environment where everyone has the opportunity to flourish.

More about our Vision & Values >
Unicef

Dean Park Primary School is a Gold Level ‘Rights Respecting School’.

This means we are committed to ensuring that pupils understand their rights, receive their rights and know how to campaign for their own rights and the rights of others.

All children under the age of 18 are ‘Rights Holders’. Their rights are found in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Duty bearers are the adults who are responsible for ensuring children receive their rights. This includes parents and care-givers, the government and those who are employed by the government (teachers, police, health care workers etc.). All adults associated with our school are duty bearers.
