Abstract :

The character crisis is an issue of many countries. For many children, the school is an uncaring environment, that can cause a negative impact in mental health, so we can see the output of school residents is not in a good character. In fact, schools have an important role in the psychosocial development of children. Seeing this fact, UNICEF developed a child-friendly school program to solve the problem. Its also necessary to evaluate the child friendly school programme, then it will be discussed about CIPP model too. The results of the review found that child-friendly schools can be optimal if principals, teachers and education staff, and school committees collaborate well in carrying out their roles in realizing the six principal components of child-friendly schools. Research on this topic is limited and this article is a literature review, so it is necessary to conduct further research using interview and questionnaire methods related to the role of child-friendly schools in building student character.
