Policies and Procedures at Minpaa
All teachers and volunteers are required to have a police and working with children check and work in accordance with Victorian Registrations and Qualifications Authority following Ministerial Order 870.
Standards we employ are as follows

• Standard 1: Strategies to embed an organisational culture of child safety, including through effective leadership arrangements
• Standard 2: A child safe policy or statement of commitment to child safety
• Standard 3: A code of conduct that establishes clear expectations for appropriate behaviour with children
• Standard 4: Screening, supervision, training and other human resources practices that reduce the risk of child abuse by new and existing personnel
• Standard 5: Processes for responding to and reporting suspected child abuse
• Standard 6: Strategies to identify and reduce or remove risks of child abuse
• Standard 7: Strategies to promote the participation and empowerment of children.

We also ensure that child safe standards are met at all times while

• taking into account the diversity of all children, including (but not limited to) the needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, children from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, children with disabilities, and children who are vulnerable; and
• making sure reasonable efforts are made to accommodate such diversity.
