Safe School Audit

The Safe School Audit's mission is: to help school communities create safe learning, physical and organizational environments by providing products and services to generate objective data in support of continuous improvement.

Your school will benefit from using the Safe School Audit because it:

  • Promotes communication among teachers, students, family and community
  • Supplies accurate data for resource allocation decisions
  • Provides information for determining program and training needs
  • Encourages community awareness and support in creating healthy learning environments
  • Provides a systematic approach to action-planning for safe schools
