Slindon College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. In addition to normal pre-employment checks, all appointments are subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service check and safeguarding interview. In addition, a Prohibition Order check, a Prohibition from Management check and overseas checks will be carried out for relevant positions.
All posts are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the College is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are ‘spent ‘unless they are ‘protected’ under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.
