CHILD PROTECTION
The resources below outline the policies and protocols that we have in place within our centres to protect the safety and wellbeing of each child, and help empower parents to protect their children.


Child Protection Policy
Our Illness Policy outlines the procedures that our centres follow to maintain our duty of care to our children and our obligation to provide a safe environment for them. We thank all of our families for their cooperation and support.

Empower to Protect
An accessible summary of techniques and tools that parents can use to protect their children by empowering them and engaging in positive communication.

Child Safe Code of Conduct
The commitment that each of our SA Montessori educators signs to confirm their understanding of the stringent expectations that we have in place regarding child protection and ethical behaviour.

A Statement from our Ownership Team following Four Corners ‘Betrayal of Trust’.
This recent Four Corners exposé highlighted inappropriate and unethical conduct in some childcare services. This did NOT feature any allegations against SA Montessori, and we are not involved in any way whatsoever with the centres or stories, we feel an ethical obligation to respond. We hope this statement will help reassure enrolled and prospective families that their children are safe, supported, nurtured and inspired in our centres. We truly appreciate the trust that you place in us. We will always strive to earn and maintain this.

Child Safe and Bravehearts are both organisations dedicated to helping families protect children from childhood sexual abuse. These sites contain strategies and resources to empower parents and children.
