Child Safety and Wellbeing

Child Safe Information

St Brigid’s College holds the care, safety and wellbeing of children and young people as a central and fundamental responsibility. Central to the mission of our Catholic schools in Horsham – St Brigid’s College and Ss Michael & John’s Primary School - is an absolute commitment to fostering the dignity, self-esteem and integrity of children and young people and providing them with a safe, supportive and enriching environment to develop spiritually, physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially.

The  Child Safe Standards came into effect in July 2022 and are a vital part of what we do here at St Brigid's College. Throughout our 2024 fortnightly newsletters, we unpacked Child Safe Standards 1-8. We will unpack the remaining CSS in the coming editions.

Our Child Safety Policy details and affirms the standards of behaviour expected for members of the St Brigid’s College community. All of our policies, including the Safeguarding Children and Young People Code of Conduct, can be found the Policies page on our school website. You can contact the Front Office if you have any queries relating to child safe practices, or any other matters.
