- ensure the health, safety and wellbeing of children, families, educators and staff
- identify potential risks and hazards before an incident or accident occurs
- build capacity in conducting both formal and informal risk assessments and management plans
- critically reflect on ways to develop, review and update policies and procedures
- encourage, share and collaborate with children, families and the wider community on risk management
- effectively identify and implement strategies to support self-managed risk through play, improving learning and developmental outcomes for children
