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>
