This policy has been reviewed subsequent to the introduction of new legislation known as the Children’s Guardian Act, 2019, effective from 1st March 2020.
In accordance with the NSW Work Health and Safety Act 2011, the work health and safety of all persons employed within the school, students, contractors engaged to work at the school, and those visiting the school are considered to be of the utmost importance.
The School is organised in such a way that the College of Teachers is pivotal. Why? Because, for every issue, the first and foremost question that must be asked is: “What is the best thing for the children and young people?”
Communication in the school; how do you find out what is happening around the school, about decisions that are taken and who makes them? Who do you talk to if you would like to be involved, if you have a question or concern?
The Privacy and Data Retention Policy sets out the practices of the School in relation to personal information. It also serves as a guide to the School’s staff as to the standards to be applied in respect of collection, destruction and storing of personal information to ensure consistency in the School’s approach to privacy.
Discipline is an integral part of teaching practice at Kindlehill. Guidelines for the best disciplinary practices, in accordance with the educational philosophy and vision of Kindlehill are detailed in the Positive Behaviour Policy.
This policy applies to Kindlehill School in protecting eligible whistleblowers and managing qualifying disclosures made regarding misconduct in relation to the school.
