Child Protection & Professional Standards
Local Baptist churches associated with Baptist Churches SA & NT have a responsibility to adhere to necessary child protection and professional standards to ensure the safety of children and church-members.
BCSANT is committed to the safety and wellbeing of all people in our churches, particularly children and other vulnerable persons. We take our responsibilities in this area seriously and ask all member Churches to comply with our Child Protection and Professional Standards policies.
To facilitate this, BCSANT has appointed an independent Director of Professional Standards to ensure our movement maintains the highest standards and best practice in this vital area.
Through Child Protection Solutions (CPS) we are able to offer regular accredited Child Protection training, both for new volunteers/workers and ongoing updates for everyone. CPS also offers on-call support and advice for BCSANT pastors and leaders.
