Protecting High-Profile Children — The Quiet, Long-Term Programme
The short version: Protecting High-Profile Children — The Quiet, Long-Term Programme — published 2026 rates, working SIA playbook, insured. short-notice cover, subject to availability in London, nationwide by arrangement.
Protecting a high-profile child is not a single detail; it is a long programme. The goal is a normal childhood — done with the security architecture invisible to the child and most of their peers.
School Liaison
Head teacher and bursar briefed under NDA. Drop-off and pickup routine agreed. Discrete officer presence at school gate where required. School informed of any escalation; no surprise contact with the child during the day.
Sport, Music & Social
Briefed officer for after-school activities and sleepovers (where the family permits). Female CPOs preferred for younger children and for any setting involving girls' changing rooms or sleepovers.
Pap & Online Risk
Where the child is targeted by press, we run a paparazzi-management protocol — staged exits, no confrontation, no comment. Online exposure (school accounts, peers' social media) reviewed quarterly and managed in writing.
Codewords & Pickups
Single agreed codeword for legitimate handover to any adult other than the named CPO. Refreshed termly. The child is briefed in age-appropriate language; the school is briefed in operational language.
Pricing — Children's Programme
School-run cover (term-time, 2 daily movements): from a bespoke monthly retainer. Full programme with after-school and weekends: from a bespoke monthly retainer. Multi-child families: bespoke.
