Child safety and wellbeing at University High School: information for families and the school community

The  Victorian Government has announced new Child Safe Standards to further strengthen child safety across organisations, including schools. The new standards recognise the critical importance of families and the broader school community in maintaining and promoting child safety and wellbeing. 

University High School has reviewed and updated our Child Safety and Complaints policies and procedures to ensure they meet the requirements of the new standards. These are available to view on our school website and are attached as a PDF to this newsletter. 

We are committed to continuous improvement in our approach to child safety and wellbeing and welcome feedback from families and members of our school community on ways we can further strengthen our child safety policies, procedures and practices. 

If you have any suggestions, comments or questions, please contact Fred-Ole Sandt at Fredole.Sandt@education.vic.gov.au or use a google form to submit recommendations.
