An all-girls school on the northside of Cork City has become the first school in Ireland recognised by Unicef for embedding children’s rights in its policy, practice, and ethos.
St Vincent’s on St Mary’s Rd is the first school in Ireland to receive a Rights Respecting Schools Silver Award from the United Nations Children’s Fund.
