Child Protection

Nanjing International School prioritises Child Protection.

Nanjing International School, in keeping with the NIS mission, is committed to Child Protection. As such, procedures have been developed to guide our staff and families in matters related to the health, safety and care of children in attendance at our school. It is with the support of our School Board that I send a letter to parents at the beginning of each school year, reminding our community about this critical issue. The NIS Child Protection procedures are based on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, of which China is a signatory.

We want to draw your attention to two key articles:

Child protection is an integral part of our overall educational programs and specific to our shared responsibility to educate children, to protect them, and to learn and grow in a safe environment.

NIS approaches Child Protection in the following ways:

I thank you for your support of our efforts and invite you to contact your school counsellor, the relevant principal, or myself with any questions you may have.
