Ensuring child safety at Inspiring Training Academy involves a comprehensive approach that integrates respect, empower, trust, help, and embraces diversity. Here’s how we incorporate these principles to create a safe and inclusive environment for young people:

1. Respect: We respect and celebrate the diversity of backgrounds, cultures, and identities among our young people. Respect is foundational in our interactions, ensuring that every child feels accepted for who they are. This includes respecting their physical and emotional boundaries, respecting people living with a disability, those unable to live at home, LGBTQIA+ and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and fostering an atmosphere where all young people feel valued and heard. We promote a culture where differences are embraced and where prejudice or discrimination of any kind is not tolerated.

2. Empower: Empowering young people from diverse backgrounds is essential. We equip them with the tools, knowledge, and skills necessary to navigate various aspects of their lives safely and confidently. This includes education embedded into our programs on cultural awareness, tolerance, and acceptance, empowering them to become advocates for diversity and inclusion in their communities.

3. Trust: Building trust with young people and their families is crucial for creating and maintaining a safe environment. We strive to build trust by being transparent, reliable, and consistent in our actions.  By demonstrating our commitment to their well-being and safety, we foster an atmosphere where young people feel secure and comfortable seeking help when needed.

4. Help: We are dedicated to providing timely and effective support to all young people, regardless of their background or circumstances. Our staff are trained to recognize and respond to the specific needs and challenges that may arise for young people. This includes offering culturally sensitive resources or assistance tailored to individual needs.

5. Celebrating Diversity: We actively celebrate diversity through inclusive programming, events, and curriculum that reflect and respect the unique experiences and perspectives of all young people. By promoting understanding and appreciation of different cultures and identities, we cultivate an environment where diversity is seen as a strength.

Through valuing and respecting diversity, we create a richer and more inclusive learning environment for our young people 

By integrating these principles into every aspect of our programs and interactions with young people, Inspiring Training Academy strives to create a nurturing and protective environment where they can learn, grow, and thrive safely, reaching their full potential.
