Safeguarding our learners
Safeguarding children is our top priority. Artlet implements a Child and Youth Risk Management Strategy and follows strict risk assessment procedures for all workshops. All Artlet employees hold current Blue Cards (and exemption cards) and have completed compulsory Student Protection training for the schools we work within. Due to the therapeutic nature of art, we are aware that practical workshops may trigger various responses or traumas of students. In the event that personal or confidential information is shared during our workshops, our employees are trained to respond appropriately and report information to your school in accordance with mandatory reporting obligations and Student Protection guidelines.
Important Reminder!
We want every child to enjoy their experience at our Artlet workshops. Please ensure that you notify Artlet of all needs and requirements of your child(REN) are shared with us upon booking so that we can provide them with the best support possible and maximise their engagement and safety. Needs may include, but are not limited to - dietary, allergies, behavioural, physical, learning, emotional needs.
Our workshops allow for 15 children to one adult facilitator so unfortunately individual instruction is not possible. If your child requires 1:1 support or attention to assist them in working independently, please get in touch to discuss private and smaller group options. Failing to advise us on your child’s needs can be dangerous for everybody involved in our workshops - especially when crafting tools and materials are used. Safety is our priority for all our students and failure to notify us may result in your booking being cancelled without a refund or credit.
