Children's Rights Skills and Knowledge Framework

The Children's Rights Skills and Knowledge Framework is for individual workers who want to build or reflect on their children’s rights knowledge and take a children’s human rights approach to their practice. 

It will support training planners, trainers and workforce leads responsible for delivering workforce skills building. It is designed to be used alongside the Training Plan and should be understood first, before you dive into the details of planning training. 

It has been co-produced with workers, children, young people and their families.

Learning Journal

The learning journal is available in Word and PDF format for use with the Children’s Rights Skills and Knowledge Framework.

Learning about children’s rights is an ongoing reflective process and something you can return to as often as you like throughout your work. 

You can use this journal as part of your ongoing professional development planning. It could be useful for discussion with line managers, for reflection on practice with children and young people, and to refresh your knowledge of children’s rights during appraisals.
