Anti-Racism

Prairiewood High School is committed to the NSW Department of Education's vision for inclusive, respectful and culturally safe school communities. We value diversity, promote understanding and celebrate the cultures, identities and experiences that enrich our school community. Every NSW public school has an Anti-Racism Contact Officer (ARCO) who supports students, staff and families to promote respect, address concerns and foster a welcoming environment where everyone feels valued and included.

The role of the ARCO

• Providing advice on the complaints handling process to students, staff and community members.
• Managing complaints of racism made in accordance with the school’s behaviour procedures.
• Providing impartial support to staff, students and community members who wish to make a complaint of racism, in a case where the complaint involves staff or a community member.
• Assisting the complainant during the complaint process.
• Providing advice related to the impact of racism to the Principal.
