2 Thy Kingdom Come Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Primary School Miles Street Phone: (08) Karrinyup 6018 Fax: (08) Western Australia Crisis Management Policy Rationale Crisis can be considered as any situation faced by staff or students that causes them to experience unusually strong emotional reactions, which may have the potential to interfere with their ability to perform at the scene or later. Crisis tend to be outside normal experiences and the individual has little by way of guidelines based on past experience about how to deal with the event or the reaction to it. We should remember that children have less experience to draw on than adults and usually have a more restricted repertoire of coping responses. Sense of control and self-efficacy are reduced. Children will be looking to those adults who usually provide support, guidance, direction and leadership to continue to fulfil these roles. Problems can arise from a single highly traumatic event or from several less severe but emotionally taxing events spread over time. Exposure to crises can trigger normal but strong reactions responses. These should decrease in duration and intensity over time. Appropriate support can minimize the duration and intensity of such reactions. Some individuals may require more support over a longer time than others. This applies to both students and staff. Aims 1. To establish a comprehensive and integrated Crisis Management Plan and ensure that this is communicated to the whole staff. 2. To ensure that there are appropriate organisational procedures to allow prompt and effective response to a crisis situation. 3. To establish and maintain liaison with appropriate community organisations (e.g.: police, fire, ambulance, hospitals, S.E.S., C.E.O. - counselling) that may be involved in responding to crisis situations. 4. To ensure that all staff receive comprehensive training in order to fulfil a variety of roles in implementing the Crisis Management Plan in a crisis situation. 2
3 5. To ensure that all students, staff and families have appropriate support, counselling and debriefing programs available to them, should a crisis situation occur. 6. To ensure that the Crisis Management Plan is evaluated and incorporated into the school s regular policy review process and that periodic review of staff preparedness and induction of new staff takes place. Crisis Response Team Responsibilities The Crisis Response Team (CRT) is responsible for: The implementation of all procedures within the school to a crisis involving a student or other members of the school community. CRT is responsible for coordination of and liaison with all outside agencies eg. Police, Non-Government School Psychology Services, Catholic Education Office, FESA, SES. Media Liaison The Principal alone has the responsibility of liaising with the media. A trauma has an effect on the whole school community. The focus of this document is to help the school community deal with the trauma, assign quite clearly various roles and responsibilities and assist the school to function and return to normality as soon as possible. Purpose A return to normality within the school To enable the collective process of grieving by staff and students To enable students to achieve a better understanding of death and dying in a supportive and controlled environment. Guidelines Guidelines for action to be taken when news of a tragic or traumatic event occurring to a member of the school community is received. 1. Staff member receiving the news immediately contacts the Principal or, if unavailable, another member of the CRT. The Principal arranges for all members of the CRT to be informed. 2. The CRT meets as soon as possible (that same evening or the next morning before school) to allocate tasks for each member and decide on the action to be taken by the School. Areas to be considered: Liaison with parents and family Appropriate manner of contact with the affected family Identifying those members of the school community most closely involved. 3
4 Arrangements for informing appropriate staff and students and other organisations associated with the school. The Principal will disseminate information to staff, students and parents. 3. The Principal should convene a special staff meeting at the earliest possible time. 4. The Principal will provide guidelines about handling student reactions and the referral of distressed members of the School. 5. The Response Group will reconvene on the same day to consider two main items. The on-going support for the affected members of the Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Primary School Community and any further arrangements considered necessary for the upcoming weeks. 6. The Principal or designated member of the CRT will keep all staff fully informed of further arrangements. 7. Follow Up. The Principal should conduct a one week follow-up and then one month follow-up meeting with the CRT to ensure all actions have been followed and to provide additional support and assistance to any member in need. 8. Review the Response Plan. 4
