School Partners  We work closely with a number of partners to support all our students across the curriculum and with pastoral care. 
Please contact the school office or your child’s PSL if you would like to speak to any of these partners. 
PC H PerkinsSchool Liaison Officer (SLO) 
PC Perkins is our School Link Police Officer and works between Drummond CHS and St Thomas of Aquin’s RC High School.
PC Perkins establishes links between Police, education, young people and the surrounding community. He can be found around the school for 2.5 days per week, offering advice and guidance to young people as well as helping to prevent incidents of antisocial behaviour in the wider community.
PC Perkins also inputs into Drummond’s Personal and Social Education (PSE) programme, drawing on his experiences as a Police Officer to provide important information and life skills to our students on a range of subjects from drugs and alcohol awareness to using social media responsibly, personal safety online and generally, and good citizenship.
Anyone requiring PC Perkin’s help or advice should contact their Pupil Support Leader (PSL) confidentially in the first instance, or approach him in his office on the SLT corridor.
