Registration to Work with Vulnerable People (RWVP)

The Department is committed to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of children and other vulnerable people on DoE premises, therefore, in line with the Registration to Work with Vulnerable People Policy, all employees, volunteers, contractors and external providers who work or attend a DoE worksite in their respective capacity must hold current RWVP.  

If you would like to volunteer your time at the school, either as parent help in the classroom, at a sports carnival or excursion, on one of our parent committees, or in the canteen and you don't as yet have RWVP, please click here for information about how to apply.  Please nominate Department of Education and our school within the existing employment or volunteer section of your application.

All volunteers coming onsite are to complete the Visitor/Volunteer logbook at the office prior to proceeding into our school.  Please make sure you have your RWVP card with you whenever you visit the school, as office staff are required to check the current status of all registrations on the Department of Justice website at each visit.

The requirement for RWVP does not apply to parents/guardians/relatives in the following situations:

  • Dropping off or collecting children, including short periods of settling children in class where the teacher is present.
  • Attending school community events (assemblies, school sports carnivals, plays and concerts) where they are not direct participants and/or do not assist in the organisation or implementation of these events.
  • Attending school for a parent information evening, parent/teacher interviews or to hear a guest speaker.
