At Purple Ruler we believe that a good education is a wholistic education.

​​We work with a team of therapists and counsellors to provide our students with a person who they can work with regularly to support them though the most challenging part of life, being a kid.

KCSIE & Level 3 Safeguarding Training

All therapists and counsellors undergo regular training on Safeguarding, Prevent Duty, KCSIE guidelines and other related training. This ensures they are equipped to recognise, prevent, and address any signs of harm or abuse in children.

Enhanced DBS & Safer Recruitment Compliance

Every team member has undergone an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. All staff have been hired following Safer Recruitment principles.

Confidentiality: Information Disclosure

Confidentiality is strictly maintained; information shared during therapy is not disclosed to schools or Purple Ruler unless there is a safeguarding concern or the information conflicts with the safeguarding policy.

Confidentiality: Limited Data Access

Records of therapy sessions are accessible only to:
The assigned therapist for session continuity and professional management.
The Head of DSL  for safeguarding oversight, when required.
