Public commitment to child safety
Our Anglican schools, and education and care services are committed to promoting the safety, wellbeing and best interests of children, and to preventing, detecting and responding to child harm.
Every child has the right to be safe and feel safe.
As Anglican child safe organisations, we commit to:
- Implementing Queensland’s 10 Child Safe Standards and the Universal Principle.
- Operating by Gospel values, which emphasise service, inclusivity, integrity, character, dignity, compassion, and justice.
- Providing children with exceptional pastoral care.
- Providing care that is physically, emotionally, psychologically and culturally safe.
- Taking all reasonable steps to protect children from exposure to harm.
- Empowering children to participate in decisions that affect them.
- Educating children about who to approach if they feel unsafe, or have concerns.
- Instructing our community members on how to respond to complaints, concerns, and breaches of our conduct expectations.
- Maintaining effective processes for responding to concerns of child harm.
- Listening, learning, and seeking to improve.
