The speech that I have prepared was not formulated entirely off of written

impartial facts and viewpoints. I am giving you my viewpoint because I just

happen to be a child, the kind of person that this conventions affects.

One part of the Child’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms that I have chosen

to talk about is the freedom to " protest without the fear of being

punished for protesting" ( Section 2 C). I feel that this right is

constantly being abused and bent. In schools especially, this right should

be respected to it’s fullest. If a punishable crime has been committed at

school the child in question should have the right and even be urged to

protect and defend themselves. Without that right being used and

respected, the school in question is in a state in criminal legality.

Suggestions: This law is a key to a safe school and a comfortable learning

environment ( which are both guidelines to the Child's Right’s and

freedom’s law). It should be part of the routine questions to a child that

has been caught offending school policy.

Another part of the Child's Charter of Right’s and Freedom’s that I

would like to discus is the law stating a child’s right to an " Education that

supports developing to the fullest potential". This law is currently being

infringed upon even at the school that I attend, a school that provides a

much more complete education that in many other schools. To have an

education taught to you at you at your fullest level is not an easy task. A

teacher and a school however must comply to the fullest abilities of a child

as an individual and not as a class. Each child has their own level of

knowledge and a teacher has to find where each student stands and try to

exceed that level every day.Individualized learning programs are most

essential for this law to be fulfilled and should be used especially in schools

that are known to exceed the normal teaching level.

In conclusion this speech I urge you all to travel beyond the guidelines of

today to make the world a better place.
