This book critically examines contemporary educational practices
with a children's rights lens. Through investigating the factors
that contribute to (or hinder) the realisation of children's rights
in and through education in different contexts, it discusses how
using a rights framework for education furthers the agenda for
achieving international educational aims and goals. Using diverse
international examples, the book provides a snapshot of the
complexity of children's rights and education. It draws on the
expertise of international research teams from Australia, England,
Finland, Italy, Mexico, Poland, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Sweden,
Switzerland, and the United States, and highlights wide-ranging
interpretations of the same mandate across different national
contexts. Beginning with a critical overview of the broader context
of children's rights in education, the book explores obligations
for States and their representatives, tensions and convergences in
implementation, and implications for teaching and learning. Using
underutilised educational and theoretical concepts, it contributes
to broadening understandings of children's rights, education and
associated theoretical frameworks. Despite a human rights framework
emphasising the indivisibility, interrelatedness and
interconnectedness of all rights, the 'right to education' (Article
28) dominates discussions about children's rights and education. As
such, equally important rights including the 'aims of education'
(Article 29) are often less considered or absent from the
conversation. Recognising that children's education rights involve
more than just access and provision, this book advocates for a much
broader understanding of the nuances underpinning children's
education related rights. Chapter 10 is available open access under
