Today on #WorldChildrensDay I am also thinking about the children in impoverished conditions in #Palestine. Since 2000, over 1,800 children have been killed across the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
.@DCIsecretariat (international NGO) report that each year approximately 500-700 Palestinian children, some as young as 12 years, are detained and prosecuted in the Israeli military court system.
Large numbers of children across Palestine face major difficulties in accessing education as a direct result of Israeli occupation policies. #Education is a basic right and a necessity to build a better society, but remains elusive for many Palestinian children.
No country is adequately protecting children’s

On #WorldChildrensDay we make a plea for the status of childhood to be respected and honoured: that we recognise children as children and not as mini adults. In schools we call for teaching to be based on facts and not ideology. transgendertrend.com/product/school…
On #WorldChildrensDay we call for the UN Rights of the Child to be upheld in all we teach children and in all policies we develop for schools.

On #WorldChildrensDay we call for safeguarding to be placed at the centre of all policies in schools. No new schools guidance should be developed that undermines statutory DfE guidelines on safeguarding and child protection.

.@GulwaliP escaped from the war in Afghanistan as a #child.
He only lost hope once he reached the UK.
The #HomeOffice didn’t believe he was 13. They put him into accommodation with adults and threatened to deport him back to Afghanistan when he turned 18 #WorldChildrensDay

The #HostileEnvironment and immigration enforcement mean that #refugee children who arrive in the UK will often be treated like adults rather than children. #WorldChildrensDay
We must support and protect #refugee children. They must be able to access #healthcare and receive the support they need for their physical and mental #health.
This #WorldChildrensDay we celebrate 30 years of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
