Abstract : Participation is one of the rights applied to every child capa-ble of forming his or her own views. The main
objective of this study is to investigate the scope of children’s right to participation enshrined in the UNCRC (United
Nations Con-vention on Rights of Child) and how that right has been prac-ticed in Sri Lankan schools at senior secondary
level. The study seeks to investigate the implementation on right to par-ticipation within the school. The study used a
sequential de-scriptive mixed methods survey design. The study was con-ducted with 90 students and 6 class teachers from
grade 10 and 11 in Colombo District. Three schools, represented each from 1AB, 1C, type2 government school located in
the above District. Semi structured questionnaire was employed to col-lect data from students and teachers. Documentary
