Abstract

Nowadays, the problem of education in Indonesia becomes interesting to discuss related to multidisciplinary science. Of course, this is because education is closely related to children as the next generation of the nation who have a strategic position in the development of Indonesia. Therefore, children must be prepared through strategic education. The government proclaims child-friendly schools through the mandate of the law as a legal basis. Child- friendly schools are one of the relevant education management models to create potential and reliable human resources to deal with the challenges of the time. This research is a scientific review of friendly schools based on the UN Convention on the Children's Rights. However, with the existence of child- friendly schools, there are still many children whose rights have not yet been fulfilled such as discrimination, lack of child- friendly education staff, school facilities and infrastructure as well as the student participation in the implementation of child-friendly schools. The advancement of education has a correlation with technological advancement. Therefore, this research sees how the role of schools as educational institutions and information technology in facing the challenges and obstacles of child-friendly schools. A qualitative approach with a focus on library research was used to look at this research with several sources like books, scientific journals, and other scientific findings. The results of this research show that the use of information technology in education specifically child- friendly schools is not on target, so there is still a lot of technological misuse in the implementation of child-friendly schools.
