Model and build respect
Maintain a classroom environment free from bullying and harassment. Promote respect and provide a safe learning environment. Model and reinforce the language, attitudes and behaviours expected of students.
Risk of significant harm
If a student discloses private information publicly and the teacher does suspect a student is at risk of significant harm they must inform their principal or workplace manager as per the Child Protection Policy: Responding to and reporting students at risk of harm.
The Mandatory Reporter Guide (MRG) can assist in making an informed decision regarding child protection concerns. More information is available on the Child Protection webpage.
