impact rights based education may have upon young people`s emotional, social and academic development. The central theme of this dissertation rests on the commitment of the Cadle Primary School towards children`s right to participation as underpinned in the Article 12 of the UNCRC. The Cadle Primary School is one of the first schools in Swansea to adopt the UNCRC through the Rights Respecting School programme (RRSA). The RRSA school initiative is developed by the UNICEF UK, which encourages the schools to place the UNCRC `at the heart of its ethos and curriculum across all areas of the school`. 7 Thereupon, the primary goal is to critically explore the spaces the Cadle has created for children that allow them to actively to engage with meaningful discussions on the matters that concern them.The Cadle Primary School was chosen for this study mainly due to the growing interest of the author towards citizenship
