Help shape the future of Children's Rights
A change in the law means that the Children’s Commissioner For England and the Children’s Rights Director are going to merge into one organisation, a new Office of the Children’s Commissioner for England.
What happened?
Last year, the government did a review of how the Children's Commissioner was doing. They have decided that in about two years time (when they have changed the law so it can happen) there should be a new organisation (called something like the Office of the Children's Commissioner for England).
What's happening now?
The NEW Office of the Children's Commissioner
The Government thinks that instead of having both a Children’s Commissioner for all children and young people, and a Children’s Rights Director specially for children and young people in care or in boarding schools or colleges, it would be better to join these two roles together in one new organisation.
