      Article 29 (<\/strong>Rights Respecting School<\/strong><\/a>)<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cEducation must develop every child\u2019s personality, talents and abilities to the full. It must encourage the child\u2019s respect for human rights, as well as respect for their parents, their own and others cultures and environments.\u201d<\/p>\n
