A Child Safe Policy is the principal document needed so child-related organisations can protect children and young people from harm and abuse. A Child Safe Policy should underpin the implementation of the Child Safe Standards. It will help organisations meet their responsibilities under the Child Safe Scheme.

- how to declare your commitment to being a child safe organisation with a Statement of Commitment to Child Safety
- the structure of a Child Safe Policy
- the elements of a Child Safe Policy
- how to identify and manage matters of high risk
- how to develop a Child Safe Policy
- how to communicate a Child Safe Policy.
