Street Child's commitment to safeguarding
Street Child is committed to ensuring the safety and protection of the communities we serve, our partners, volunteers, and staff.
As part of this commitment, all job applications will be subject to satisfactory references and appropriate background checks, including a criminal record check. Street Child also participates in the Inter Agency Misconduct Disclosure Scheme. Under this scheme, we will ask previous employers of job applicants to provide us with information about any findings of sexual exploitation, sexual abuse, and/or sexual harassment during employment, or incidents under investigation at the time the applicant left their job.

Street Child believes that every child deserves the chance to go to school and learn. Our projects focus on a combination of education, child protection and livelihood support to address the social, economic and structural issues that underpin today’s education crisis. We partner with local organisations and communities to deliver our locally rooted programmes, using evidence to drive learning and the refinement and scale up of programmes to create maximum impact for the most children at the lowest cost. We pride ourselves on being willing to go to the world’s toughest places where others won’t, including remote, hard-to-reach areas and fragile, disaster-affected states across sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia. Since 2008 we have helped over 250,000 children to go to school and learn and supported over 25,000 families to set up businesses so they can afford the cost of educating their children.
