Child Protection at XLIS
At XLIS, we are dedicated to ensuring a safe environment where our students are fully protected from harm, whether they are on campus or participating in any school-organized off-campus events.
Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Protection of Minors
中华人民共和国未成年人保护法

Minors’ parents or other guardians must not carry out the following conduct:
(1) Abusing, neglecting, or illegal giving minors up for adoption, or committing domestic violence against minors.
Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Protection of Minors (2024)
中华人民共和国未成年人保护法 (2024)

Article 19: Schools shall educate and support students to proactively and promptly report any bullying situations they discover, and protect the reported students.
We expect every member of our diverse school community—including staff, external partners, volunteers, guests, parents, and visitors—to act with integrity and take shared responsibility for maintaining a safe environment for our students at all times. Your vigilance and support are essential in upholding these values.
Should you have any concerns regarding a student’s safety or well-being, our Child Protection Officer (CPO), Mr. Kriss Parker, is available to assist. You can reach him directly at kriss.parker@xalis.com for any inquiries or reports related to child protection.
At XLIS, all job applicants undergo a thorough child protection screening process.

All staff members at XLIS also receive mandatory annual Child Protection training to ensure they are equipped to recognise and respond to any potential risks to student safety.
By working together, we ensure that XLIS remains a secure and nurturing environment where every student can thrive.
