Southway Primary School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff to share that commitment. All applicants who are offered employment will be subject to an Enhanced Disclosure check from the Disclosure Barring Service before their appointment is confirmed. As the job for which you are applying involves opportunity of access to children it is exempted from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. You are, therefore, required to declare any current or spent convictions, cautions, reprimands bind-overs or warnings you may have had, regardless of how long ago. It is an offence to apply for this role if you are barred from engaging in regulated activity relevant to children. The disclosure of a current or spent conviction, caution, reprimand, or warning does not necessarily mean that your application will not be progressed or that an offer of employment cannot be confirmed. The main consideration should be whether the nature or timing of the offence makes you unsuitable for work within an education environment.

We are committed to equal opportunities; we welcome applications regardless of ability, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation or religion.
