Child Safe Standard 4

Families and Communities are Informed and Involved

Creating a child-safe school is a shared responsibility. We value strong partnerships with families and the wider community to help ensure every child feels safe, supported and heard.

 

What we are already doing

We keep families informed and connected through:

  • Regular communication via COMPASS and our school newsletter
  • A clear Complaints Policy available on our website and COMPASS
  • Parent feedback opportunities through surveys, School Council and conferences
  • Community events such as Harmony Day, Eid celebrations, Book Week and Welcome Picnic events
  • Prep Transition sessions and parent helper inductions focused on child safety
  • Information sessions such as Cyber Safety evenings
  • Inclusive practices that celebrate diversity and support student wellbeing

 

What we are continuing to strengthen

We are continuing to:

  • Share child safety information in clear and accessible ways
  • Increase opportunities for family voice and feedback
  • Strengthen awareness around help-seeking and raising concerns
  • Expand parent education opportunities around wellbeing and online safety
  • Continue building an inclusive and welcoming school community

 

Our Commitment

At PVNPS we believe open communication and strong partnerships with families are essential in creating a safe and supportive environment where all children can thrive.
