Child protection screening dropped for parent volunteers

Parents and guardians volunteering at schools and preschools will no longer have to be screened, under child protection policy changes in place from today. 
The State Government says the lifting of relevant history screening for working with children will make it easier for parents and guardians to volunteer their time at the child’s school and preschool activities. Sporting and community groups using school facilities can now determine if screening is required and what type may be needed, in line with current legislation.
