Child Safety Standard: One

 SAFE CHURCH PROGRAM  NATIONAL CHILD SAFETY FRAMEWORK
 

“A child safe institution is committed to child safety. This commitment should be supported at all levels of the institution and be embedded in an institution’s leadership, governance and culture, and all aspects of the institution’s business and practice. Institutional culture consists of the collective values and practices that guide the attitudes and behaviour of staff and volunteers.

It guides the way things are done and the way issues are managed, dealt with and responded to. A positive, child-focused culture could help to protect children from sexual abuse and facilitate the identification of and proper response to child sexual abuse” (Royal Commission, 2017).

National Child Safety Framework

This framework for child safety is the first of its kind for churches and faith-based organisations in Australia. It encompasses the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, the Royal Commission recommendations and the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations.

The NCCA engaged the services of Child Wise — an organisation which has pioneered the use of child safety standards in Australia — to consult with NCCA Safe Church Program members to develop the best resource possible.   

The NCCA Child Safety Framework is a suite of five documents that each builds on the other as outlined below. It is available for purchase by request and invoice - please contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. 

 

 1/5

 

 

 

 

 

This document provides context for the creation of the Framework, and reinforces the NCCA’s commitment to the Royal Commission recommendations and the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations which have strongly informed it; and includes a Glossary and a summary of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.

  
 

2/5

 

 

 

 

 
This document includes an explanation of each pillar’s importance: Leadership, culture and governance, Empowerment of children and young people and Capacity-building. It links theses with relevant National Principles and describes how each contributes to the cultivation of child safe environments.  
 

3/5

 

 

 

 
In this document the standards are broken down into key elements which are accompanied by guidance on how to implement each one. Corresponding resources for this document can be found in the NCCA website’s ‘Resource Hub’.   
 

4/5

 

 

 

 
This document sets out each Child Safety Standard alongside a Training Standard and accompanying Indicators to be used by organisations as guideposts along the way. Corresponding resources for this document can be found in the NCCA website’s ‘Resource Hub’.   
 

5/5

 

 

 

 
This document should be used to ensure that all existing policies and practices are effective and are aligned to the Child Safety Standards which underpin the Framework. The tool provides the ability to rate performance and create an improvement plan.   
 

Child Wise is an Australian social enterprise and registered charity that supports public, private and not-for profit organisations to develop child safe environments and cultures.  Child Wise has valued the opportunity to collaborate with the NCCA on the development of this Child Safety Framework, and is hopeful that it will support the continuous improvement of safeguarding practice in all member churches. 

This Framework has been designed to support member churches to be open, aware, learning organisations which centralise the rights and safety of children and young people. It is built around the core pillars of: Leadership, Governance and Culture; Empowerment and Participation of Children and Young People; and Capacity Building, 

Work to ensure children and young people are safe, and that their voices are heard, must never stop. Child Wise looks forward to seeing the NCCA and all member churches do their utmost to continuously assure the safety and wellbeing of all children and young people.   

This NCCA Child Safety Framework is a step on that journey.

Professional Learning Webinar 2021

22 October 2021 

NCCA Professional Learning Webinar

22 October is the Anniversary of the National Apology to Survivors and Victims of Institutional Child Sexual Abuse

NCCA’s Safe Church Network presented a Professional Learning Webinar to our safeguarding community on embedding:

National Child Safe Standard 2: Children participate in decisions affecting them and are taken seriously.

The Salvation Army of Australia shared areas of research and programming looking at participation of children and youth in church mission and services.

Representatives from The Salvation Army will be facilitated discussions related to:

  • Developing a Lived Experience and Participation Framework: Emergent learnings from Salvation Army’s journey
  • Case Studies of Youth & Children’s Participation in The Salvation Army.

Friday 22 October 2021 was also the third anniversary of the National Apology to Victims and Survivors of Institutional Child Sexual Abuse and the webinar commenced with a reflection and prayer to acknowledge this important day, given by John Cox of the Uniting Church in Australia. 

Session one - Uma Komalan

Developing a Lived Experience and Participation Framework: Emergent learnings from Salvation Army’s journey

In early 2021, The Salvation Army started the work on developing a Lived Experience and Participation (LEAP) Framework.  This started with a “discovery phase” that mapped what child and youth participation looks like across different TSA Mission Expressions through a nationwide consultation process. This presentation will provide an overview of the LEAP Discovery Process and the initial findings from the consultations, including discussing key enablers and barriers for child and youth participation.

Session two -  John Marion

Case Studies of Youth & Children’s Participation in The Salvation Army.

Exploring case studies of youth and children’s participation at local and organisational levels, to explore different approaches to empowering young people.

The case studies include examples of empowerment, co-design, service delivery, advocacy, and organisational policy. 

The NCCA is very grateful to the Salvation Army and both Uma and John for facilitating this webinar.

NCCA Safe Church Program

 THE NCCA SAFE CHURCH PROGRAM      

The Safe Church Program was officially wrapped up at the start of 2024.

In recent years, we have witnessed churches around Australia responding and developing their own training and resources, and the need for the Safe Church Program to actively work in this area has been shrinking over the past few years.  

For over a decade, the NCCA Safe Church Program led the ecumenical endeavour to make Australian Churches safe for children and vulnerable people. It had its own membership base that included both NCCA member and non-member churches, and it worked across all denominations to support churches in their safeguarding journey.

SAFE CHURCH TRAINING - WHAT NOW?

If you are looking for a Safe Church Awareness Workshop (or equivalent), please contact your denomination's  Safe Church, Professional Standards, or other relevant office.

OUR JOURNEY

Since the commencement of the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse and the release of the recommendations in December 2017, Australian churches and Christian ministries made historic changes.

The NCCA Safe Church Program consulted with member churches to equip them with the resources to address and respond to the recommendations arising from the Royal Commission, and assist with capacity-building in safeguarding issues and professional standards. 

As part of the NCCA's commitment to assisting our Churches and Christian communities to effectively meet the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations, the Safe Church Program collaborated with Child Wise to develop the NCCA Child Safety Framework and all its associated resources.

The Framework and resources supported awareness-raising workshops and other training related to the safety and prevention of abuse of children and vulnerable adults. The Framework also encouraged and equipped churches to develop their own training around the safety and protection of children and vulnerable adults.

Through the Safe Church Training Standards and SCP Training Partners and Providers system, the program promoted national consistency in content and standards of training. 

In 2023 we trained additional Awareness Workshop presenters across several states/territories, and updated many of the resources provided through our program to reflect the various legislative changes. Presenters who were trained and assessed through our Presenter Endorsement Process will continue to facilitate Safe Church Awareness Workshops and collaborate to continue to provide up-to-date information. 

THANK YOU

We would like to thank all the churches and organisations that have worked with the NCCA Safe Church Program over the years, and all the leaders and volunteers who have worked diligently to develop, improve, and implement safeguarding training and strategies within Australian churches.

Although there is still much work to be done, we celebrate the Churches' passion and commitment to creating and maintaining spaces that are safe and welcoming for all people.
