Safeguarding & Safer Recruitment

At Team Educate, we are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Safeguarding is at the heart of everything we do, ensuring every child is safe, supported, and able to thrive. We follow strict safer recruitment practices to ensure that every adult working with children is safe, suitable, and committed to promoting their welfare. Safer recruitment is more than just carrying out checks - it's about creating a culture where safeguarding is a priority from the very first stage of hiring.

Our safer recruitment process includes:

• Enhanced DBS checks (including barred list checks where appropriate)
• Verification of identity, right to work in the UK, and address history
• Detailed reference checks with previous employers, covering at least the last 2 years
• Employment history checks to account for any gaps in work or education
• Qualification and training verification (where applicable)
• Face-to-face/Video call interviews to assess suitability, values, and understanding of safeguarding responsibilities

By following these steps, we make sure that the people we recruit are not only capable of doing the job but also share our commitment to keeping children safe.

As part of our dedication to high standards, we also offer FREE training courses e.g. Level 2 Safeguarding Children, Prevent awareness course and much more to all staff. These courses will give you the knowledge and confidence to recognise signs of abuse or neglect, understand your safeguarding responsibilities, and know how to take the right action to protect children in your care.

Safeguarding is everyone's responsibility, and safer recruitment helps ensure that the staff who join Team Educate are trustworthy, responsible, and prepared to put children's wellbeing first.
