Criminal Records
An offer of employment is conditional upon the School receiving an Enhanced Disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) which the School considers to be satisfactory. The School applies for an Enhanced Check for Regulated Activity from the DBS (which includes a check of the Children’s Barred List) in respect of all positions at the School which amount to regulated activity. It is unlawful for the School to employ anyone who is barred from working with children.
In addition, the School will also undertake other statutory checks required to comply with legislation when working within a school. It is a criminal offence for any person who is barred from working with children to attempt to apply for a position at the School.
If you are successful in your application you will be required to complete an enhanced DBS Disclosure Application Form. Any information disclosed will be handled in accordance with any guidance and/or code of practice published by the DBS.
If you are successful in being shortlisted for this role you will be required to provide information about your suitability to work with children by completing a self-declaration form. In this form you will be required to provide details of any spent and unspent convictions and cautions.
The School is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and therefore all convictions, cautions, reprimands and final warnings (including those which would normally be considered “spent” under the Act) must be declared. You are not required to disclose a caution or conviction for an offence committed in the United Kingdom if it has been filtered in accordance with the DBS filtering rules.
If you have a criminal record this will not automatically debar you from employment. Instead, each case will be assessed fairly by reference to the School’s objective assessment procedure set out in the School’s Recruitment, Selection and Disclosure Policy and Procedure.
