Peter Barraud

Director of Safeguarding

Peter has worked in schools since 2006 and has spent the the majority of his career working at St Peter’s Catholic School and Woolmer Hill School.

At St Peter’s, Peter progressed from NQT to Assistant Headteacher and Head of Sixth Form before becoming Deputy Headteacher at Woolmer Hill in 2016.

He has been a Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) for over ten years and previously served as Safeguarding Lead for the WMAT before taking on the role of Director of Safeguarding for the Trust. In this role, he spends every Friday supporting the exceptional DSLs across the Trust.

Peter is a trained History teacher and has taught History, Classical Civilisation, and Sociology at A level. He continues to teach GCSE Sociology at Woolmer Hill, which remains one of his favourite parts of the week.

Peter is always happy to speak with colleagues about safeguarding or to offer support with any concerns they may have.
