Safeguarding and Child Protection
The International School of Turin is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
It is school policy to actively seek confidential references for all new employees including at least one from the previous three employers.
All new employees coming from outside Italy are required to provide a police background check from their current country of employment/residence and all previous countries where they have worked with minors.
Locally hired staff are required to provide a police background check with the local police authorities.
The school will, by law, apply for a police background check in Italy for every new employee.
Every new employee will need to take a Child Protection training during Orientation week
A specific team of people, and a CPO (Child protection officer) has been appointed to deal with any CP issues
