Review Of Professional Standards For Teaching (Scotland)
by: Cath Larkins
What did we do
In 2017-18 Children in Scotland worked with the General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS) on The Review Of the Professional Standards for teachers, specifically the section on Values.
The GTCS wanted to put the experiences and views of children and young people at the centre of its review and commissioned us to conduct engagement work with children and young people.

The Second Child Rights Report
What did we do
A participatory project in which almost 3000 children all over Germany as experts shared their opinions, views and evaluation of whether their rights are being respected in their every-day lives. The final report included survey results, many child-led individual projects, drawings and conversations from children in nurseries and was part of the official reporting to the United Nations.
