Child Protection Audits

Ensuring safe environments for children

Child Matters offers comprehensive child protection audits to help organisations assess and strengthen their child protection policies, procedures, and practices. Our audits are designed to ensure your organisation meets legislative requirements and industry best practices.

What is a child protection audit?

A child protection audit is an expert review of your organisation’s approach to child safety. Our team assesses your current procedures and policies, identifies strengths and suggests areas of improvement. Our clear recommendations will help your organisation to meet compliance and best practice standards.

Audit process

Our audit process can be tailored to suit your needs, but may include:

01

Policy review

An analysis of your existing child protection policy, with feedback and suggestions for improvement. This step is completed remotely.

02

Procedure assessment

Surveys and interviews are conducted (on-site or remotely) to evaluate how child safeguarding procedures are being implemented and monitored in your organisation.

03

People and culture

We interview key staff within your organisation to better understand and provide valuable feedback on organisational culture, child protection knowledge and identify strengths and potential risks.
