Self-assessment tool for the Child Safe Standards (docx, 3.21 MB)
This Self-Assessment Tool is for any organisation working with children. It supports staff, managers and directors to consider child safeguarding within their organisation.
The Tool enables organisations to reflect on:
- how the Child Safe Standards and Universal Principal are currently being implemented
- where work is required
- the actions that need to be taken to plan for improving child safe practices.
When complete, the Tool gives you an assessment of your current child safe practices, and the work required to improve. An Action Plan template is available in Appendix 1 so you can begin to plan your next steps in a systematic way.
The Action Plan will help your organisation demonstrate how you are building, strengthening or elevating your practices to become a Child Safe Organisation.
