As a Child Safe organisation, all staff are committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment for all young people in our care.
We are committed to ensuring that staff (including volunteers and contractors at the College) explicitly adhere to the eleven Child Safe Standards to provide a safe and supportive environment in which students can grow, learn, and flourish.
Refer to this visual for a summary of the Child Safe Standards:
As part of our commitment to child safety, staff (including contractors and volunteers) receive training to report and respond to concerns about child abuse. All staff are mandated to report these concerns and the College staff follow the Four Critical Actions.
