The aim of this article is, firstly, to discuss the content of the right to
participate. Secondly, Hart and Shiers’ models of participation will be
discussed to assist in establishing the level of participation by learners.
Thirdly, the implementation of this right will be discussed with reference
to Lundy’s proposed model for the implementation of article 12 of the
Convention on the Rights of the Child. Lastly, the effectiveness of the
retributive and restorative approaches to discipline in implementing and
giving effect to the right to participate will be evaluated. (excerpt)
