TSI international School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and young people. We recognise that children have a fundamental right to be safe, protected, and listened to.

​

Our safeguarding approach is guided by:

​

• International best practice

• The expectations of the Council of International Schools (CIS)

• Local legal and cultural contexts in Thailand

​

We take all safeguarding concerns seriously and respond with care, professionalism, and discretion.​

​

What Safeguarding Means at TSI

​

Safeguarding at TSI includes, but is not limited to:

​

• Protecting children from abuse, neglect, and exploitation

• Ensuring safe recruitment and professional conduct of staff

• Providing a safe physical and emotional school environment

• Supporting children’s wellbeing, mental health, and resilience

• Teaching children how to stay safe and speak up

​

Safeguarding is embedded into daily school life, policies, staff training, and curriculum planning.

 

 

​Safeguarding Leadership and Responsibility

​

TSI has a clear safeguarding structure within our two primary schools and our secondary school to ensure accountability and effective action.

​

• Designated Safeguarding Leads (DSL) oversees safeguarding within each 'school'.

• Deputy Safeguarding Leads support this work across campuses and phases

• All staff receive regular safeguarding training and updates

• Safeguarding responsibilities are clearly defined and monitored

​

​​​

Safer Recruitment and Staff Conduct

​

TSI follows robust safer recruitment practices to ensure that all adults working with children are suitable and properly vetted.

This includes:

​

• Background and reference checks

• Criminal record checks

• Verification of qualifications and employment history

• Ongoing professional conduct expectations

​

All staff are required to adhere to a clear Code of Conduct, which sets out appropriate professional boundaries and behaviour at all times.

​

Listening to and Supporting Students

​

Children at TSI are encouraged to:

​

• Speak to a trusted adult if they feel worried or unsafe

• Share concerns about themselves or others

• Know that they will be listened to and taken seriously

​

We aim to create a culture where children feel confident to ask for help and understand that safeguarding is about care, not punishment.​​​

​

Any safeguarding concern should be reported immediately to hos@tsi.ac.th.
