Child Safe Standards
All children have the right to feel safe and be safe, but safety does not just happen. We all have an obligation to do the best we can to keep children safe from harm and abuse.
Victoria’s Child Safe Standards (the Standards) began in Victoria in January 2016. They are a set of mandatory requirements that ensure organisations have systems, policies, and practices in place to keep children safe from abuse and harm in organisational settings.
Here at Wise Kids ELC, we have a duty of care as an organisation to ensure that all children are safe in our care. We do this through training and development of our team, educating children on their rights, allowing children to advocate and influence decision making that directly effects them while in our care and supporting our broader community with how to keep children safe.
