If your application is successful, prior to taking up your post, you will be required to undergo a Formal Disclosure process through the Disclosure and Barring Service (previously CRB). This will require you to complete a separate DBS application form and to provide a range of more than one piece of documentary evidence of your identity.
Although a criminal record involving offences against children is likely to debar you from appointment of this type of post, the existence of other criminal convictions will not necessarily be a bar to employment.
Any criminal record information arising out of the disclosure process will be discussed with you before any final decision is made about your employment.
It is a criminal offence to apply for or accept a position (paid or unpaid) working with children if you are excluded from such work by virtue of a court order or exclusion by the DBS.
Copies of Mountbatten School Services policy on the employment of ex-offenders, the DBS Code of Practice and the school’s policy on criminal records checks are available on request.
With effect from 17th June 2013 criminal records certificates will only be issued directly to the applicant. Mountbatten School Services will request that you show them your certificate and will record the Disclosure number and issue date and retain this on your personnel record and on its computerised personnel record system in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998. Mountbatten School Services abides by the DBS Code of Practice.
