The Queensland Government’s Safer Schoolies Initiative (Initiative), led by the Department of Child Safety, Youth and Women (the department), is a whole-of-government response which delivers support services to key tourism destinations that attract Year 12 school leavers holidaying together.
The purpose of the Initiative is to enhance the safety and responsible behaviour of school leavers, whilst minimising disruption to the local communities where they gather through a range of strategies which reinforce public safety and personal responsibility.
As part of the Initiative, the department, through the Safer Schoolies team delivers the Safer Schoolies Gold Response (Response), in partnership with the City of Gold Coast, as a mechanism to manage the influx of tens of thousands of young people choosing to holiday together on the Gold Coast.
To deliver the Initiative the department requires the services of a suitably experienced security firm to undertake the role of Security Provider for the annual Response.
The Security Provider will be required to assume the roles of:
Security Provider during the construction and dismantle phase of the Response, and
Security Provider during the execution phase of the Response, including identified duties as part of emergency planning procedures.
