The safety, protection and wellbeing of all our students is of fundamental importance to Mosman Prep. We believe all children have the right to be and feel safe and to be protected from harm. Our full Child Protection Policy can be seen here.

Mosman Prep is a participating institution in the National Redress Scheme.

The Scheme was established in 2018 in response to the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse and acknowledges that many children were sexually abused in Australian institutions and recognises the suffering they endured because of this abuse. It helps people who have experienced institutional child sexual abuse gain access to counselling, a direct personal response (for example, an apology), and a Redress payment.

If you experienced sexual abuse as a child (under 18 years of age) before 1 July 2018 and Mosman Prep was responsible for bringing you into contact with the person who abused you, you can make an application to the National Redress Scheme any time between 1 July 2018 and 30 June 2027. You must also have been born before 30 June 2010 and be an Australian citizen or permanent resident.

The Scheme started on 1 July 2018 and will run for 10 years.

The National Redress Scheme website also has information about the availability of free and confidential redress support services.
