Child Safe

Baimbridge College is a Child Safe School

At Baimbridge College we hold the care, safety and wellbeing of children and young people as a central and fundamental responsibility of our school. Our commitment is drawn from our school Vision statement that: Our vision is to meet the individual learning needs of our students by: providing them with opportunities to develop their interests, abilities and talents.  Encouraging the pursuit of excellence, preparing them for life in a changing world, encouraging their sense of responsibility to the community within a safe and caring environment.  Our school values are: Respect, Resilience, Honesty, Persistence, Responsibility and co-operation.  
BC has also adopted a Child Safe Statement that articulates our zero tolerance of child abuse.

There are 11 Child Safe Standards:
  • Standard 1: Culturally safe environments – Establish a culturally safe environment in which the diverse and unique identities and experiences of Aboriginal children and young people are respected and valued.
  • Standard 2: Leadership, governance and culture – Ensure that child safety and wellbeing are embedded in school leadership, governance and culture.
  • Standard 3: Child and student empowerment – Children and young people are empowered about their rights, participate in decisions affecting them and are taken seriously.
  • Standard 4: Family engagement – Families and communities are informed and involved in promoting child safety and wellbeing.
  • Standard 5: Diversity and equity – Equity is upheld and diverse needs are respected in policy and practice.
  • Standard 6: Suitable staff and volunteers – People working with children and young people are suitable and supported to reflect child safety and wellbeing values in practice.

  • Standard 8: Child safety knowledge, skills and awareness – Staff and volunteers are equipped with the knowledge, skills and awareness to keep children and young people safe through ongoing education and training.
  • Standard 9: Physical and online environments – Physical and online environments promote safety and wellbeing while minimising the opportunity for children and young people to be harmed.
