Children and their right to an education


Education is a fundamental right. Everyone should have access to lessons and thus the opportunity to develop socially. The right to education is crucial for the economic, social, and cultural development of all societies.


Education: an important foundation


Education makes it possible to acquire basic knowledge.
Education offers students the opportunity to acquire a wide variety of skills. It begins by imparting basic knowledge to the youngest members of society. During this time, thanks to elementary school and parental care, children learn to read and write.
This is a crucial phase that will later allow the child to continue their education by attending secondary schools.
The ability to learn is also a part of education and is necessary for the development of personality and identity as well as physical and intellectual abilities. Education promotes the transmission of general principles to the next generation and the maintenance of social rules and values. By improving social and professional integration, also contributes to the development of individuality.
Education ultimately serves to improve everyone's quality of life. It offers underprivileged adults and children the opportunity to escape poverty. It is, therefore, an essential tool for the economic, social, and cultural development of people around the world.


The right to education: a fundamental and universal right


Education must be accessible to all children.


Education is a human right that should be accessible to everyone without any discrimination. All children should be able to go to school and benefit from the opportunities to shape their own future. In addition, schooling should be equitable for all children so that children who grow up in less favorable circumstances are able to exercise their right to education.


School education should be of excellent quality.


In addition to the question of accessibility, the right to education also implies that the learning objectives are achieved. This means that all children have the right to enjoy an education that is adapted to their abilities. In addition, teachers should be trained in such a way that they can combine pedagogy and play and thus not only arouse the interest of children but also maintain it.
The individual states must guarantee every child their right to education. Above all, they must focus on primary education, that is, make schools accessible and free of charge for all children, thereby enabling them to learn to read and write.
