Three schools in Dunedin have been told a child sex offender has been moved into the suburb of City Rise, the Department of Corrections has confirmed.

The man, who has not been named, is subject to an extended supervision order.

He must comply with a raft of parole conditions, which include GPS monitoring and an order not to associate with anyone under the age of 16.

The department said it had visited the schools this week to tell them about the move.

The schools include Kavanagh College.

The offender has been told neighbours know of his presence in the community.
