In line with KCSIE (Keeping Children Safe in Education) guidance we conduct social media checks for all candidates who are shortlisted for roles in order to ascertain their suitability to work with children and young adults. As the College supports a number of children and vulnerable adults, all staff are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Accordingly, all staff will be subject to an Enhanced DBS check, along with a Children’s Barred List check if in regulated activity. Any offers of appointment may be withdrawn if these checks prove unsatisfactory. Self-disclosure will be required as part of the recruitment process. If you fail to disclose or provide sight of your DBS certificate then your offer of employment is likely to be withdrawn. The College's DBS policy is available upon request.
