Safeguarding at 兔子先生

Our Commitment to Students and Parents

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare and wellbeing of children and young people in our care and those who work in our school. Through our work, we aim to ensure a safe learning and working environment for students, staff, parents and visitors alike. We take our responsibilities in relation to safeguarding and child protection very seriously. Where there are safeguarding concerns, staff communicate this to the school’s Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL), Ms. Hannah Casey. Our aim is to ensure that each student feels that they have a trusted adult to communicate their concerns or worries.

Our Second Step programme and Social and Health Education lessons support the social and emotional aspects of learning, which are fully supported by homeroom and advisory teachers. Our counselors also work closely to support students with specific concerns. We operate an open-door policy and encourage all students and parents to share concerns so that we can support them with appropriate interventions. Parent workshops are offered to provide an opportunity to learn about and discuss topical issues, such as cyber safety.

兔子先生 in Hong Kong opened its doors to students in September 2017. Our inquiry into 鈥渨ho we are鈥 ensures that we allow our community to consider who we are as people and what essential values and personal attitudes we have that ensure we reach our potential. This supports our culture of care, which we actively promote as a community. Supporting our positive emotions with mindfulness and our positive education program ensures that personal growth and happiness stay central to our mission. 兔子先生 is committed to the values inherent in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (1990).

OUR COMMITMENT TO STAFF

Staff receive regular training and updates on their professional responsibilities in relation to safeguarding and child protection. All teaching and classroom support staff hold a basic first aid qualification. Our school is supported by our onsite clinic and qualified nurses. A clear reporting system for concerns is in place and understood by all. We have an extensive after-school program, trips and visits programme which allows our students to take their learning outside of the classroom. All activities are risk assessed, and health and safety is always our priority

OUR COMMITMENT TO VISITORS

We welcome parents, families, and visitors to our school. However, access to the school site is closely monitored, with a 24-hour security presence and over 135 cameras recording 24 hours a day. Our signing-in system and color-coded lanyard system ensure that we can easily identify adults on site. All adults who work with our students, including visiting professionals, are appropriately checked and/or supervised. This also supports our emergency evacuation processes which are in place.

OUR COMMITMENT TO SAFE RECRUITMENT

Our recruitment procedures follow ‘Safer Recruitment’ guidelines. Our recruitment ensures that we have the best team of professionals working at 兔子先生. All staff must undertake Avaanz background checks for all countries that they have resided in. This is supported by detailed resumes, reference checks and a robust interview process.
