The Achievement Program

The Achievement Program

Saint Ignatius College and the Student Wellbeing team have been working on the ‘Safe Environments’ benchmark of the Achievement Program. This benchmark is about preventing injuries as well as create an environment of inclusivity. This means creating school facilities that promote healthy behaviours, comply with safety guidelines, and make sure all students can move throughout the school with ease, regardless of their ability. It also means creating an environment that is free from discrimination, bullying and harassment and where all students and staff feel supported.

Saint Ignatius College has achieved this benchmark and will have this certificate of achievement on display, along with the representation of other benchmarks that have been achieved.

As indicated in previous newsletter articles, Saint Ignatius College have signed up to the Achievement Program which promotes a whole of school setting approach to health and wellbeing. This program is based on the World Health organisation’s health promoting schools and workplaces model.

Saint Ignatius College will continue to work through the remaining benchmarks and to keep the community informed of the school’s progress as it unfolds.
