"Good participation involves children and young people being actively listened to and supported to express their views."
An online toolkit is being developed to support staff training on Participation Standards and how to put the standards into practice, it will also give training to young islanders who want to engage.
The Minister for Children and Education, Deputy Inna Gardiner, says it provides an overarching framework to encourage action and support continuous challenge.
