Committment to education does not mean the same thing as committment to children. "Committment to children" is more broad.
An example from current events: If a child tells his teacher that they are transgender, but does not want her parents to know, should the teacher tell the parents? If a school is "committed to children," the most likely answer is "no." If they are committed to education, the answer might be "It depends on whether that will affect the student's ablilty to learn."
