Child Protection Policy

Safeguarding Every Student

At El Shammah Elohim School, the safety and well-being of our students are paramount. We are steadfastly committed to protecting every child from all forms of abuse, neglect, exploitation, and harm. Our comprehensive Child Protection Policy serves as the cornerstone of this commitment, providing clear guidelines and procedures for all members of our school community.

This policy is meticulously developed and strictly implemented in full alignment with the Child Protection Policy of the Royal Government of Cambodia. This ensures that our practices meet national legal standards and reflect best practices for child safeguarding within the Cambodian context.

Key Principles & Practices:

• Zero Tolerance: We uphold a zero-tolerance stance against any form of child abuse or neglect.

• Clear Procedures: Our policy outlines precise, accessible procedures for reporting concerns, ensuring that all suspicions or disclosures of abuse are handled promptly, sensitively, and in accordance with legal requirements.

• Mandatory Staff Training: All faculty, administrative staff, and volunteers undergo mandatory, regular training on child protection. This includes recognizing signs of abuse, understanding reporting protocols, and adhering to our strict Code of Conduct.

• Code of Conduct: Every adult working within our school environment is bound by a comprehensive Code of Conduct that clearly defines appropriate professional behavior and boundaries with students.

• Confidential Reporting: We provide secure and confidential channels for students, staff, and parents to report any concerns, ensuring that every voice is heard and taken seriously.

• Designated Safeguarding Lead: The school has a designated staff member (or team) responsible for overseeing child protection, acting as a central point for all concerns and ensuring proper follow-up.

Our Pledge to Parents:

We understand that you entrust your most precious assets to our care. Our Child Protection Policy is a testament to our profound dedication to creating a secure, nurturing, and respectful environment where every child feels safe, valued, and empowered to learn and grow without fear.
