Developing a Risk Mangement Plan - 9am to 11am

Who it's for

Our session on reporting is for anyone in child-related work responsible for child safety and developing child safe documents.

What we'll cover

Standard 6 of the Child Safe Standards requires child safe organisations to create processes that respond to complaints in a child-focused way. A child-focused complaints process supports children and others to raise any issues or concerns around child safety.

Our child safe trainers will explain reporting obligations so that participants can better understand what to report, how to report and who they need to report to. Participants will also learn how to respond to disclosures, create a culture of reporting and develop a Child Safe Reporting Policy.

To complement the session, download our Reporting Obligations and Processes handbook.

Empowerment and Participation - 1pm to 3pm

Who it's for

Our session on how to empower young people is for everyone who works with children.

What we'll cover

As part of the Child Safe Scheme, all child-related organisations in NSW should apply the Child Safe Standards. Standard 2 is about making sure ‘children participate in decisions affecting them and are taken seriously’.

Our child safe trainers will take you through the practical skills that can help your organisation empower children and young people to speak up in your organisation, particularly around what makes them feel safe or unsafe when they are in your care.

To complement the session, download our Empowerment and Participation handbook.
