Description

The Association of Independent Schools of New South Wales developed this comprehensive training package to assist schools in forming appropriate responses to child protection matters. The training focuses on schools developing a culture of safety as a defining feature of a Child Safe Organisation. The package assists schools with mitigating risk and enhancing systemic response to inappropriate and unprofessional behavior, and most importantly, about supporting the community to become and promote a safe environment for children. This training is designed for leadership and involves considerable case study analysis and opportunity for school plan development. It is highly recommended that several leaders, if not the whole leadership team, attend.
