Child Safety Principles – what can you do

[GraceForum admin]

How can you show your commitment to the Child Safety Principles at your service?

How about creating a living display to demonstrate how your service is meeting each Child Safe Principle?

Need some inspiration? We’ve created an example poster filled with practical ideas for each principle.

Want to create your own? We’ve also created an A3 poster you can print out or fill in online, then display it proudly at your service.

What does your service do for each principle? Let’s discuss. Do you have any ideas?

How are you supporting your team to understand and embed the Child Safe Principles?
Even one small example or strategy could help inspire others!

To assess where our educators are I printed the OOCG questionaire. Their answers will allow us to tailor training and upskill our awesome educators

We recently used the self-assessment tool from Child Safe Organisations during a staff meeting to help guide our discussion on how we’re going with the principles. It really helped us reflect and we ended up creating a simple action plan together.

Love this idea! A great resource to use. Curious to know, what were the main areas that stood out as needing the most improvement?

We added the Child Safe Principles to our staff room noticeboard and changed the focus each month. It’s a good reminder and helps keep conversations going around how we can improve our practice.

We have also put up a poster in our service of the 10 principles for staff to refer to. We are now thinking about how we can involve children more in embedding these practices. Does anyone have any ideas or examples of how you’ve included children in conversations about child safe practices?

Has anyone used our Child Safe Principles Poster in your service?

We’d love to hear how you’ve used it and how it’s supported your team, children or families in understanding the principles and how you embed them in your practice.

Feel free to share your experiences, and we’d especially love to see photos of how you’ve displayed it in your service.
