Human Dignity at Manor Park

Every human being is important and special. We call this human dignity. When you learn what human dignity means to you, you are less likely to accept when other people hurt, discriminate or put someone down. Pupils at Manor Park school have been creating Dignometers. Here are their ideas:

What gives us human dignity:
Having pride in yourself, being complimented, keeping active, doing things you love like drawing, winning games, having friends, being included, playing games, being kind, being care for, going to the park, being loved, having family and pets, getting enough sleep, been given gifts, getting help when you need it, celebrating your birthday, people saying ‘you’ve done a great job’, having self-belief and learning new languages.

What can take away our human dignity:
Not having friends, missing out on education, being judged, being in trouble, losing a game, getting told on, people saying horrible things about you or the people you care about, racism, your belongings being destroyed, not getting enough food, drunken people being around you, being scared or alone, someone stealing from you, getting kicked or punched, swearing, family or pets dying, being abused or neglected, not being allowed to play outside and being bullied.
