AISSA SUPPORTS IMPROVED CHILD PROTECTION INITIATIVES

The 2019 Governance Conference is hosted by Mr Robert Fitzgerald AM, Commissioner to the Australian Government’s Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse, who stresses that it is essential that policies and processes start with and continue to prioritise the best interests of each child.

A new Working with Children Check (WWCC) is introduced for staff in all schools, with the AISSA providing HR and Legal support and advice to implement this important change.
