CHILD
PROTECTION POLICY STATEMENT
The
British Antiochian Orthodox Deanery
regards child protection and good working practice as a priority. In the
interests of the safety and well being of all children and young people,
it has developed and operates a formal child protection policy, which is
registered with the Churches’ Child Protection Advisory Service. The
church is committed to ensuring that everyone working with children or
young people:
● have undergone a Criminal Records Bureau check at
enhanced level,
● are adequately trained and supervised,
● understand and follow the church’s child protection
policy. The
child protection policy may be viewed upon application to the Webmaster. As
part of this church’s commitment to children and young people it has
appointed Fr. Gregory Hallam as Child Protection Co-ordinator and Fr.
Michael Harper as Deputy Child Protection Co-ordinator. All the children
and young people involved in activities within the church know who they
are and how they can be contacted. Should the church have any child protection concerns it will seek the advice of the Churches’ Child Protection Advisory Service and if appropriate contact the statutory authorities. |
