Children’s Commissioner? Perspectives
and Insights from Jurisdiction to
Opportunity
Anne Longfield
Childrens Commissioner for England.
Anne Longfield OBE is the Children’s
Commissioner for England. She has a statutory
duty to promote and protect the rights of all
children in England in accordance with the
United Nations Convention on the Rights of the
Child.
She speaks for wider
groups of children on
non-devolved issues such
as immigration (for the
whole of the UK) and youth
justice (for England and
Wales.
The Children and Families
Act 2014 gives her special
responsibility for children in
or leaving care, living away
from home or receiving
social care services
She is supported in her
work by a small team of
experts at the Office of the
Children’s Commissioner.
Relationship with Government and
Parliament

• I have a 6 year term of office
• Budget envelope is set by Government
• Office of approximately 25 staff to assist with this
• I set my own strategic priorities
Independence

• Independent from Government
• Paris principles
“Consultative, inclusive and transparent, initiated and
supported at the highest levels of Government, the legislature
and civil society”
• Balance of trust and independence
Childrens Engagement
• All of the work I do is informed by children
• Including decisions at an individual level
• I work at both levels to ensure that children’s voices are heard,
and that their voices make a difference
• Children and young people inform my business plan
• Participate in my projects
• Shape my thinking on policy issues through direct consultation
Powers
The ‘Super Powers’

representative per year
