Child Protection at Logos International School
God calls us to protect and care for children, recognizing them as individuals of value and dignity. At Logos International School, we follow Christ’s example by ensuring the safety and well-being of all children in our care.
A Biblical Perspective
“God claims sovereignty over the lives of children as over all Creation. Men and women have no mandate from God to destroy or defile Creation; indeed, God’s Word extends the responsibility of protecting and safeguarding children – not just to a parent’s own offspring but also to the stranger and orphan (Deut. 24:17). …Jesus approached children compared to the prevailing cultural mores, changing both the status and role of the child in religious thought. Not only did Jesus extend rights to children as individuals, he also made clear that God sees children as individuals. Jesus treated children not as incomplete adults, but as young people called directly to him.”

Our Child Protection Policy
The Asian Hope Board recognizes that no organization is immune to the horrors of child abuse. Our Child Protection Policy is a proactive measure to protect children and teenagers within our organization. Following Christ’s example, we are committed to showing care and concern for every child in our care.
Our recruitment process is rigorous, including confidential references and mandatory criminal record checks for all staff.
All incidents or reports are attended to promptly and professionally. Allegations are taken seriously, and the alleged victim is never held responsible.
