Schools are among highly valued social institutions wherein the new generations' way to progress is paved. As such, they must operate in a way that promotes and protects children's basic rights. One area of operation in schools is evaluation. Hence, it too needs to be in accordance with the children's rights charter. The new qualitative and descriptive approach to evaluation in Iran has been in trial stage during the past six years, yet no one has looked at this approach from the stand point of promoting and protecting children's rights. Appraisal of the new approach in terms of providing protection, prevention, needs satisfaction, and cooperation for children within the framework of basic rights, revealed a high degree of compliance. In other words, the new approach to evaluation is a step towards realization of children's rights.
