At the end of the week pupils were asked to write down one thing that they had learned about child labour during the focus week. A summary of their responses is shown in this word cloud.
Raising awareness of child labour is really important, children have the right to be protected from exploitation and harm. The pupils of Ardrossan Academy were also asked to comment on how they could help to prevent and discourage the use of child labour.
Their responses are summarised in this word cloud.
It was clear that our pupils wanted to stop the use of child labour. Their ideas to achieve this included; raising awareness, education, buy Fairtrade, impose sanctions and tougher penalties.
