A new Working With Children Check has been introduced in NSW to help protect children and keep them safe. A Working With Children Check is a prerequisite for anyone in paid or voluntary child-related work in NSW. The process involves a national police check and a review of findings of misconduct. This will be phased in over the next 3 years and after that time all parents volunteering at the school as parent helpers, will be required to have their WWCC clearance number.
Applications for a Working With Children Check can be completed online at: http://www.kidsguardian.nsw.gov.au/check
