EXAMPLE – RIGHT TO EDUCATION Are active measures taken to ensure that all children have equal educational opportunities including all: Girls? Children from rural areas? Children from minority cultures? Children with disabilities? Sick, including hospitalized children? Immigrant and refugee children? Children living away from their families? Nomadic or gypsy children or children in temporary accommodation? Children excluded from school? Children in all form of detention? Is primary education compulsory? Are all aspects of these education free (books, uniform, equipment…)

What measures are adopted to encouraged school attendance and to prevent school drop-out? Are schools required to maintain measures to combat bullying? Do these measures take into account: - The child’s home circumstances? - The child’s first language? - Respect for the child dignity? - Respect for cultural or religious traditions and gender difference? - Any special needs of children (such as disability, pregnancy, sickness etc.)

EXAMPLE – RIGHT TO HEALTH Do all children in the jurisdiction have the right to enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health? Do all children with disabilities have the right to the same level of health care in the same system as other children? Is there consistent and continuing reduction in the infant and child mortality rates in the State? Do all children in the jurisdiction have access to necessary medical assistance and health care? Is the development of primary health care developed as priority?

Has the State ensured adequate access to health education, health promotion and support to the public and in particular to children and parents to: - Child health and nutrition? - Advantages of breastfeeding? - Hygiene and environmental sanitation? - Prevention of accidents? - Preventive health care? - Family-planning education and services? - HIV/AIDS-related prevention education?
