Safety & Security

The School recognises its duty and responsibilities to protect and safeguard the interests of all children. It recognises that effective child protection work requires sound procedures, good inter-agency co-operation and a workforce that is competent and confident in responding to child protection situations.

KLISS is committed to the following principles:

• A child’s welfare is paramount. Each child has a right to be protected from harm and exploitation and to have their welfare safeguarded.
• Each child is unique. Action taken by child welfare organisations should be child-centred, taking account of a child’s cultural, ethnic and religious background, their gender, their sexual orientation, their individual ability and any special needs.
• Children, parents and other carers should be made aware of their responsibilities and their rights, together with advice about the power of professionals to intervene in their family circumstances.
• Each child has a right to be consulted about actions taken by others on his/her behalf. The concerns of children and their families should be listened to and due consideration given to their understanding, wishes and feelings.
• Individual family members must be involved in decisions affecting them. They must be treated with courtesy and respect and with due regard given to working with them in a spirit of partnership in safeguarding children’s welfare.
• Open-mindedness and honesty must guide each stage of assessment and of operational practice. The strengths of individual family members, as well as their needs, should be given due consideration.
• Personal information is usually confidential. It should only be shared with the permission of the individual concerned, or unless the disclosure of confidential personal information is necessary in order to protect a child. In all circumstances, information must be confined to those people directly involved in the professional network of each individual child and on a strict “need to know” basis.
• Professionals should be aware of the effects of outside intervention upon children, upon family life and the impact and implications of what they say and do.
• Explanations by professionals to children, their families and other carers should be plainly stated and jargon-free. Unavoidable technical and professional terminology should be explained in simple terms.
• Sound professional practice is based upon positive inter-agency collaboration, evidence-based research and effective supervision and evaluation.
• Early intervention in providing support services is an important principle of practice in inter-agency arrangements for safeguarding the welfare of children.

KLISS has in place a comprehensive network of policies and procedures aimed at providing the highest level of child safeguarding commitments that we are determined to uphold. We seek the full support of all stakeholders; staff, parents and students alike, to ensure the full abidance and compliance of these policies and procedures to ensure the wellbeing of everyone at KLISS.
