Choosing to attend this workshop is an investment in the safety and wellbeing of every child. It’s a chance to pause, reflect, and strengthen the practices that make your classroom, your organisation or your place of work a place where young people feel seen, heard, and protected.
You’ll walk away with clarity, confidence, and a shared language for navigating the Child Safe Standards, cultural safety, student voice, and your responsibilities under the Reportable Conduct Scheme.
More than anything, you’ll leave knowing exactly how to play your part in creating environments where children can thrive, and where the adults around them feel equipped, supported, and united in purpose.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
Know what the 10 Child Safe Standards are and how they shape safe, accountable organisational practice.
Apply the Universal Principle and Cultural Safety expectations to ensure all children feel safe, seen, and respected.
Recognise the role of student voice and participation in creating child‑centred environments and safer decision‑making.
Identify responsibilities under the Reportable Conduct Scheme, including what must be reported, to whom, and within what timeframes.
Respond appropriately to concerns, disclosures, and allegations using clear, child‑centred language and safe practice.
Strengthen everyday behaviours and routines that build protective cultures and reduce risk.
Use the Child Safe Standards to guide policy, practice, and professional judgement across classrooms and school environments.
