Support Staff Vacancies
All recruitment is undertaken in accordance with Safer Recruitment requirements. As part of our due diligence we can only accept a curriculum vitae (CV) alongside a full application form. In accordance with the latest guidance we may also conduct on-line searches as part of our recruitment process. The stated aim of this approach is that it may help to identify any incidents or issues that have happened, and are publicly available on line, and we may want to explore with individual applicants at the interview.
Please note that posts are classified as having substantial access to children, and appointment is subject to an enhanced police check of previous criminal convictions (DBS). Applicants are required, before appointment, to disclose any conviction, caution or binding-over including ‘spent convictions’ under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exemptions) Order 1975. Non-disclosure may lead to termination of employment. However, disclosure of a criminal background will not necessarily debar individuals from employment – this will depend upon the nature of the offence(s) and when they occurred.
