Policy Review

We are reviewing the process for policy review to ensure that the review schedule is consistent across all relevant documentation and to ensure centres have clarity around this process.  We will keep you updated as we progress!

Each month we will let you know which policies/ procedures are up for review (as per the schedule) so that you can feedback on these. Centres as a whānau decide whether the national policy/ procedure is fit for purpose or if changes might be required.

Centres may choose to do this in a way that suits their centre, ensuring that they allocate a person to submit feedback. 

Policies for review this month.

Child Protection Policy  7 Child Protection Policy | Playcentre  and associated procedures Health and Safety | Playcentre

A reminder that any Centres may have their own Centre Practices, however, these practices must meet the requirements of Playcentre Aotearoa Policies and procedures as a minimum, with the Centre Practice providing additional detail required at an individual centre level.  

Some ideas for reviewing Policies and Procedures

  1. Discussion as a group a Centre Business Meeting,
  2. Using email to distribute links to Policies to all members and seek feedback,
  3. Using other communication tools used by the Centre to distribute policy and procedures for review and seeking feedback.
  4. Printing out documents and putting them somewhere prominent for whanau to review and comment on.

An Overview of updates to policies and procedures 2022 is available on our website.
