Child safety and wellbeing at Sunbury College: information for families and the school community

Sunbury College is committed to an environment where students are safe and feel safe.

Our child safety framework explains how we support and maintain child safety and wellbeing at Sunbury College. It includes our: · Child Safety Policy · Child Safety Reporting and Responding Obligations Procedures, and · Child Safety Code of Conduct, which outlines acceptable and unacceptable behaviours for all staff and volunteers at our school.

Our students and families are important partners in providing a child safe environment. These regular newsletter reminders are one of the ways we ensure our school community is aware of:

- our commitment to child safety, and

- how to provide feedback or raise child safety concerns.

If you have any concerns about child safety at any time, please contact Sunbury College on 03 9744 1066. Any child safety complaints or concerns are treated seriously. For more information about our school’s complaints process, see our Complaints Policy.

We also welcome your ideas on ways we can improve our approach to child safety and wellbeing. If you have any suggestions or comments, please contact Sunbury College on 03 9744 1066 or at sunbury.co@education.vic.gov.au.
