Child Friendly Leeds Thumbs Up

Child Friendly Leeds has acknowledged that the past few months has been a difficult time for children and young people, with great disruption to their lives. This has included missing out on performing in concerts, mixing with their peers, building friendships and relationships, moving forward with their learning and experiences like taking tests, transition visits to secondary schools and the excitement of preparing for the end of primary school.

School leaders, teachers and support staff have worked incredibly hard throughout this period to ensure that pupils have been able to access learning – whether that was at home or when some of them were able to return to school. However, as a child friendly city, Child Friendly Leeds wants to recognise and appreciate all our children and young people to acknowledge how difficult things have been and thank them for the part they’ve played in helping to keep people safe.

Child Friendly Leeds has produced a certificate for secondary schools so that every child and young person in the city can receive a big ‘Child Friendly Leeds thumbs up’ at the end of the academic year.
