Child Safe Policies & Procedures
This 2.5 hour online class helps all organisations working with children and their families explore the policies and procedures needed to be a child safe organisation.
Like other providers, we focus significantly on Safeguarding and Child Protection Policies and Safeguarding Codes of Conduct and they are a central requirement. However, whilst these policies may hold the spotlight, we make sure customers explore these in the context of an overall child safe policy framework.​
By the end of this class, learners are able to:
​
-
Define what a policy framework is and how it supports an organisation's practice.
-
Recall best practice surrounding child safe policy frameworks.
-
Name those policies and procedures that are central being a child safe organisation.
-
State New Zealand child protection policy legislation compliance requirements. ​​
​
-
Confirm if their organisation's child protection policy and safeguarding code of conduct meets best practice and, if not, how it can be developed further.
