Child safety in physical and online environments
Ensure that physical and online environments promote safety and wellbeing while minimising the opportunity for children, young people and students to be harmed.
To effectively build safe, inclusive and respectful learning environments, school leaders and staff must purposefully collaborate with students, families, and their physical and online communities to co-create an explicit safety and wellbeing agenda and commitment (Catholic Education Melbourne 2018). Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools (MACS) recognises school environments extend beyond the school grounds and commits to ensuring child safety is considered in all interactions.
