Saint Ignatius College Geelong
Victorian Child Safe Standards
In the June edition of our Newsletter, we reported that Saint Ignatius College Geelong is in the process of updating policies, procedures and practices that align with the new Victorian Child Safe Standards and Ministerial Order No. 1359, Implementing the Child Safe Standards – Managing the risk of child abuse in schools and school boarding premises. The College recognised this as an opportunity to build on our existing Child Safety Program to address the 11 new Standards.
In recent weeks, a great deal of work has been done to ensure that our policies and guidelines are reflective of the new Victorian Child Safe Standards. We have been working on the following policies:
Saint Ignatius College Geelong Child Safety and Wellbeing Policy
PROTECT Identifying and Responding to Abuse – Reporting Obligations
Family and Community Involvement in Child Protection at the College
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Students (Child Protection)
Students from Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Backgrounds (Child Protection)
Please refer to our College website to access the updated and revised policies and procedures at any time.
