Child Safety

Commitment to Child Safety

Kangan Institute is a child-safe organisation. We are committed to providing a safe environment and opportunities for children and young people to participate in education and empowering all children under 18.

We do this by:

Providing a culturally safe environment where First Nations children and young people's diverse and unique identities and experiences are respected and valued.
Organisational leadership, governance, and culture committed to child safety and wellbeing.
Empowering children and young people about their rights, participate in decisions affecting them and are taken seriously.
Paying particular attention to the needs of children and young people with disability, from CALD backgrounds, those who are LGBTI+, or First Nations.
Include families and communities in promoting child safety and wellbeing.
Ensuring people working with children and young people are suitable and supported to reflect child safety and wellbeing values in practice.
Provide physical and online environments that promote safety and wellbeing.
Facilitate ongoing training and continuous improvement practices to keep this child-focused and child safety at the forefront of minds.
