I wish to re-iterate if the Deputy has any child protection concern in relation to a teacher, it should be reported to the Child and Family Agency without delay.

If any allegation is referred to my Department, it will be reported to the Child and Family Agency in accordance with the requirements of Children First. At the same time, my Department makes the allegation known to the school authority concerned as employer of the subject of the allegation.
