Child Safeguarding Standards
Short version for young people — September 2026
English translation. The Polish short version is the reference version of the child-friendly Standards adopted by Conversa Language Centre.
You have the right to feel safe
During Conversa Language Centre lessons you have the right to respect, privacy and a safe learning environment. Nobody may humiliate, threaten or ridicule you, touch you in a way you do not want, or pressure you into sexual or other behaviour that makes you uncomfortable.
How a teacher should behave
- treat you with respect and patience,
- explain lesson rules clearly,
- respect your boundaries and privacy,
- contact you professionally and about learning-related matters,
- respond if somebody insults, harasses or harms you.
What an adult at Conversa must not do
- use violence or threats,
- humiliate or shame you,
- make sexual comments or proposals,
- ask you to keep a secret about something that may put you at risk,
- offer alcohol, nicotine or drugs,
- create a private relationship with you that goes beyond the normal teacher–learner relationship.
Online safety
Do not share lesson links or access details with unauthorised people. Do not record or post another person’s image, voice or messages without permission. If someone online harasses you, impersonates you, sends inappropriate content or posts something about you without permission, tell an adult you trust.
Other learners
Everyone should treat one another with respect. Violence, ridicule, threats, exclusion, cyberbullying and sharing embarrassing materials are not acceptable.
If something feels wrong
You can tell your teacher, parent or guardian, or contact Kamila Bajgier, owner of Conversa Language Centre, through the official Conversa contact channels or at .
You can also report something that happened to another person. You do not need to be certain that harm has occurred — it is enough that the situation worries you.
What happens after a report
Your concern will be taken seriously. Your safety comes first. Depending on the situation, Conversa may contact a parent or guardian or, in serious situations, the appropriate authorities. Information is shared only with people who need it to help protect you or comply with the law.
If you need help now

Asking for help is okay. If something worries you, tell someone you trust.
