One single event of an education accused of a sex crime makes national news in Australia. An occurrence thankfully so uncommon that the country stops and condemns it. A simple google search of the USA and an article that states “Nearly 350 K-12 educators arrested on child sex crimes in 2022” (Chasmar, 2023) is incomprehensible. A clear ocean between our two countries. Why is it so different? Both are progressive countries. Both strongly condemn educators accused of sex crimes. Both are proactive in assessing educator suitability. But even with consideration for the size and population factored into the equation it is clear – Australia is doing better. A Royal Commission. A New Legislation. New powers to monitor Schools. Let the progress of Victoria, Australia, guide you to better protect students.
