Commitment to Child Safety
🛡️ Victoria’s 11 Child Safe Standards: Keeping Our Students Safe
At Yarra Me, the safety and wellbeing of our students are our top priorities. In line with Victoria’s Child Safe Standards, we are committed to creating an environment where every child feels safe, respected, and empowered.
📚 What Are the Child Safe Standards?
Introduced in 2016 and strengthened in 2022, the Child Safe Standards are a set of 11 mandatory requirements for all organisations in Victoria that provide services or facilities to children. These standards are designed to protect children and young people from harm and abuse, ensuring that organisations take proactive steps to create and maintain a child-safe environment.

School Community Policies
Yarra Me School's policies are created in order that students can experience success in a safe and caring environment that supports their resilience and achievement.
These policies are supplementary to the Policy and Advisory Library (PAL) providing Victorian government schools access to governance and operational policies and advice. It complements the Department’s extensive web resources and directs users to relevant web content and supplementary information.
The PAL’s information comes from a range of legislative and regulatory requirements, primarily the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 and the Education and Training Reform Regulations 2007. Where appropriate a specific web page will identify its related legislation or regulation.
The PAL's content is subject to ongoing change and users are encouraged to regularly visit the PAL for the latest information.
