Parayhouse school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Our objective is to provide a safe environment for all young people to learn and reach their full potential.

The DSL takes lead responsibility for child protection and wider safeguarding in the school. This includes online safety and understanding our filtering and monitoring processes on school devices and school networks to keep pupils safe online.

Our DSL is Verity Carnevale, co-headteacher.  

The deputy DSL is Phoebe Buret, Middle Leader.

Visitors are asked to speak to a member of the safeguarding team if they have any concerns or worries about the safety of students or staff in school.  This is identified on arrival at school with the presentation of an information leaflet.

Staff are guided to speak to a member of the safeguarding team and record concerns on CPOMs (the schools safeguarding recording system) in line with the schools safeguarding policy.
