    Child Safe Review 2023

    As part of our regular internal audit program, the College engaged external auditors Shine Wing to conduct a comprehensive review of our child safe processes. The outcome of this review was a glowing commendation of the systems the College has in place to protect our young people, with four recommendations for further improvement. Of the recommendations, three were rated low risk and one moderate risk with suggested actions to better integrate the reportable conduct scheme into processes, improve training and record keeping and enhance communications and promotion of child safety with student families. 

    The College is in the process of implementing these improvements within the required timeframes. If you have any queries about this review or other child safety related questions, please email ohsmgr@trinity.unimelb.edu.
