PUBLIC CHILD PROTECTION WALES VALUES STATEMENT

● PCPW exists to promote and create a culture in Wales in which all children is valued, safe, and reach their very best potential.

● We do that by providing a ‘voice for children’, and a ‘voice for parents’.

● We are a parent-led charitable group, concerned at the way national and local Governments have often failed children in terms of safeguarding and education.  We seek to work positively and creatively with both, promoting a responsible and shared partnership between schools and parents, and between parents and our elected representatives at all levels.

● We seek to envision, encourage, and equip parents to ensure our schools, universities and civic bodies work towards our stated aim.  We do that through providing information, educational resources and where necessary, campaigning on behalf of children and parents. We encourage parents to be actively engaged with all levels of civic life – including school governors and standing as councillors and for Parliament.

● We seek the highest standards in Safeguarding our children and will raise awareness of exploitation and abuse, as necessary.  To that end, we fight for Compulsory Sexual Safeguarding of Children and Compulsory in-depth CSA, CSE and HSB training for all working with children and vulnerable people.

● We promote safer families and safer services, including fighting for additional investment into Children and Young People’s Services.

● We campaign to ensure a wholesome approach to all aspects of Education, ensuring parental/carer involvement remains at the heart of all developments.

●We are non-Party Political, and our parents represent the breadth of society in Wales.  Our parents come from all genders, sexual orientations and religious – all three of which we respect and value.
