KIS Reignwood Park takes great pride in developing and maintaining a supportive and inclusive community for its students, parents, and staff. This means ensuring that all members of the community are safe, cared for, and welcomed.
All staff at KIS Reignwood Park are familiar with our child protection policies and procedures, and all members of the KIS Reignwood Park community are encouraged to explore these areas so that we all act in the best interest and safety of our students. All members of our school community have a shared responsibility for child protection.
Safe Recruitment Procedures
KIS Reignwood Park adopts safe recruitment and selection procedures. We are dedicated to safeguarding and promoting the health and well-being of our students and expect all employees to share this commitment.
Through a thorough interviewing process, collecting professional references, checking qualifications and places of previous employment, as well as conducting police criminal reference checks for all staff, we do everything possible to employ the very best professionals to join our school community.

Social and Emotional Support
Strong pastoral care practices, Personal, Social, and Health Education curriculum, and social-emotional counselors all support our students' well-being and help them prepare to take on the challenges of adolescence and adulthood. Students are supported, if needed, in solving problems, issues relating to friendships, relationships, peer pressure, and other problems that may occur in their lives.
