Children's Mental Health Week: "My Voice Matters" (KS3 slideshow)

Children’s Mental Health Week 2024: "My Voice Matters"

Slideshow (5 slides including title slide) to facilitate knowledge and discussion around children’s voices and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child

Can be used in class, or in an assembly, with further discussion to follow with class teachers.

The slides include notes for teachers with links to relevant information.

These slides were created with KS3 children in mind. I have created the same slideshow, using slightly different language, for KS2 and KS4. These are also available for free here on TES Resources.

These slides are not limited to being used during Children’s Mental Health Week 2024. They can be used in any lesson covering the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC).
