A Summary of JCC's Child Protection Policies and Procedures

Every young person has a right to FEEL SAFE, and to BE SAFE from harm. 

No one who works or volunteers with our school should ever harm a Young Person.

If a Worker at JCC hears that a Young Person has been, is being, or is likely to be harmed  (Physically or Sexually), the LAW says we MUST report this Harm.

If someone feels that a Worker or Volunteer is, or has been causing them or a Young Person HARM, they need to tell one of the Co-Principals - David Powell or Frances Missen.  They can do this by phoning the college on 07 3554 1799 and asking to speak with a Co-Principal.

If a Worker or Volunteer hears about HARM that a young person has experienced, or is experiencing, they must tell a Co-Principal - David Powell or Frances Missen.

If the HARM is or was Sexual Abuse, the school must write a report and notify the Police.

If the HARM is or was Physical Abuse, the school must write a report and notify The Department responsible for Child Safety.
