11. Planning for the review of impact on children’s rights and wellbeing

The impact of the proposal on children’s rights and wellbeing will be monitored as part of the ongoing implementation and evaluation of the Centre and the wider education and skills reform programme. This will include consideration of how the Centre supports teaching quality, professional learning and equity.

The CRWIA will be reviewed and updated if there are any significant changes to the role, functions or delivery model of the Centre that could affect children and young people more directly, or if new evidence emerges that indicates a different or additional impact on children’s rights and wellbeing.
