This article provides a children’s rights critique of the concept of ‘pupil voice’. The analysis is founded on Article 12 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, which gives children the right to have their views given due weight in all matters affecting them. Drawing on research conducted on behalf of the Northern Ireland Commissioner for Children and Young People, the article assesses some of the barriers to the meaningful and effective implementation of the right within education. It is argued that the phrases which are commonly used as abbreviations for Article 12, such as ‘pupil voice’, have the potential to diminish its impact as they provide an imperfect summary of the full extent of the obligation. The article proposes a new model, which has four key elements, for conceptualising Article 12—Space, Voice, Audience and Influence

Bu makale “öğrencinin ifade hakkı” pupil voice; Öğrencinin İfade Hakkı kavramı üzerine bir çocuk hakları eleştirisi niteliğindedir. Birleşmiş Milletler Çocuk Hakları Sözleşmesi’nin, çocuklara kendilerini etkileyen konularda görüşlerinin dinlenmesi ve değerlendirilmesi hakkını tanıyan 12. maddesi temel alınarak bir değerlendirme yapılmıştır. Kuzey İrlanda Çocuklar ve Gençler Komiserliği NICCY adına yapılan araştırmanın verilerinden yararlanılan bu çalışma, 12. maddenin tanıdığı hakkın eğitim alanında anlamlı ve etkili bir şekilde uygulanmasının önündeki engelleri değerlendirmektedir. 12. maddeden bahsederken genelde kısaltmalar şeklinde kullanılan “öğrencinin ifade hakkı” gibi ifadelerin içerdiği yükümlülükleri yeterince vurgulamayarak maddenin etkisini azaltma potansiyeline sahip olduğu tartışılmaktadır. Bu makale, Alan, İfade, Dinleyici ve Etki olmak üzere dört temel ilkeyi temel alarak 12. maddeye yeniden tasarlanmış bir model önerir
