The approach the Department for Education has adopted is to make the assessment of children\u2019s rights an integral part of policy and legislative development rather than a one-off exercise. The results of this approach are reflected in the equality impact assessment published for the Education Act 2011.[1]<\/p>

Our consideration of children\u2019s rights during the legislative process also takes account of advice from the Joint Committee on Human Rights.<\/p>

The Office of the Children\u2019s Commissioner is an independent non-Departmental public body and is responsible for publishing the reports it produces.[2]<\/p>

The Department for Education is asking schools, like other employers across the public sector, to contribute more towards their employees\u2019 pensions to ensure that the cost of public sector pension schemes do not fall unfairly on taxpayers. Our protection of the core schools budget in real terms means that schools are well-placed to cope with changes in their costs in 2015-16. The Department has also deferred the introduction of the increase to September 2015, giving schools an additional five months to plan how they will meet the additional pensions cost.<\/p>

Responsibility for action to tackle child maltreatment and respond to the needs of vulnerable children rests primarily with local government, alongside other local agencies, including health services and the police. This work is co-ordinated by local safeguarding children boards.

Nevertheless, we are keen to see more outstanding male teachers in primary schools and the trend is positive. The number of male teachers in primary schools has increased by 3,400 since 2010, whilst the proportion of male primary trainees starting programmes in 2013/14 is 21%, compared to 20% in 2012/13 and 19% in 2011/12.
