Protest

In the UK we as minors, declared by the convention of children's rights (here) article 13, have the right to express ourselves and when someone tries to prevent us from our rights it annoys me.

At the moment our school is trying to make decisions about our school without any opinions of the pupils and their reasons because people (not even from our school) have complained that we are a fame academy. We are being forced to conform to what others want and in doing so they are ignoring the people that make up the school, us.

When we complained we were told they didn't care and that we don't have the right to protest: well actually we do. Some others have also said that they won't listen so there is no point but did that stop Gandi, did that stop Martin Luther King Jr; no it didn't.
