The Department of Education, in partnership with the Daniel Morcombe Foundation, has developed the Daniel Morcombe Child Safety Curriculum for Queensland students.
The Curriculum consists of classroom lessons across 3 phases of learning: Prep to Year 2, Years 3 to 6 and Years 7 to 9.
The Curriculum is aligned with the Australian Curriculum: Health and Physical Education (Version 8.1) and is available to all Australian teachers through password-protected websites. It aims to teach children about personal safety and awareness, including cybersafety and phone safety, by focusing on three key safety messages: Recognise, React and Report.
The Curriculum was developed by the Department of Education in consultation with Bruce and Denise Morcombe, the (former) Commissioner for Children and Young People and Child Guardian, representatives from the Queensland Police Service and the Department of Child Safety, Youth and Women, and experts in child safety education.
