11. TELG has an implied duty of care to the students under our supervision and we take that responsibility very seriously. As registered teachers (in Queensland), we are bound by the same responsibilities (and rights) as all teachers. We will actively seek to prevent harm to students and support students who have been harmed. TELG employees and volunteers all hold a “Blue Card” (or the equivalent) and will strive to establish, build, and maintain positive relationships with students so that the self-esteem and social development of students are enhanced.
