TG International School Strengthens Child Safety Through Expert-Led Protection Training

Building Safer Schools: TG International School Hosts Child Protection Training

TG International School recently took a significant step forward in safeguarding students by conducting a professional training session on child protection for its educators. The session was led by Mr. Jai Prekash Ramalingam, a Principal Consultant at Soci.Train and former Director of the Child Protective Service in Singapore.

As schools across Cambodia strive to maintain not only academic excellence but also a secure environment for learners, TG International School’s initiative stands out as a proactive model. The training aimed to equip teachers with the skills and confidence necessary to identify, report, and respond appropriately to signs of child abuse or neglect.

Expert Guidance from International Leadership

Having Mr. Jai Prekash Ramalingam facilitate the session added immense value. His international experience in child protective services brought global insights into local practice. The training covered essential topics such as:

• Recognizing physical and emotional indicators of abuse

• Responding effectively and compassionately to disclosures

• Following legal and ethical protocols for child protection in schools

This type of expert-led training ensures that the school’s child safety protocols are not only in place but are also well understood and actively implemented by staff.

Empowering Educators for a Safe Learning Environment

Teachers are often the first to notice when a child is in distress. Equipping them with the right knowledge and tools is essential for maintaining a caring and protective school culture. TG International School’s teaching staff left the session with clearer understanding, increased awareness, and practical strategies they can apply immediately in their roles.

More importantly, the training instilled a sense of collective responsibility across the school team—every adult on campus plays a part in safeguarding children.

A Culture That Prioritizes Protection

Child protection isn’t a one-time event—it’s an ongoing commitment. TG International School’s decision to invest in such training highlights its dedication to student welfare, something increasingly valued by parents and education professionals in Cambodia.

In Phnom Penh’s competitive international school sector, creating a secure and nurturing environment has become a critical differentiator. Parents today look beyond academics, seeking schools that prioritize wellbeing, emotional development, and ethical care practices. TG International School is aligning itself with these expectations by placing child safety at the forefront.

A Step Toward Systemic Change

By leading with action, TG International School sets an example for other institutions across Cambodia. Child protection training should be an essential part of every school’s development plan—especially in early childhood and primary settings where vulnerability is greatest.

This initiative is not just about compliance; it’s about building a culture where every child is seen, heard, and protected.
