It expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Successful candidates will be expected to follow school safeguarding procedures and promote the welfare of students.
Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers. As this post is considered a ‘regulated activity’, a check through the Disclosure and Barring Service, including the children’s barred list, will be made. Shortlisted candidates should be aware that the school may conduct online searches as part of our due diligence process. Successful applicants must be familiar with and comply with policies and procedures relating to safeguarding, child protection and promoting the welfare of students.
Conducting Online Searches
Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) asks schools to carry out online searches on shortlisted candidates as part of the process of assessing suitability.
Candidates are therefore required to provide the following information as part of your application:
* the social media platforms on which you have accounts;
* the account names/handles for all of your social media accounts, including any under a nickname or pseudonym;
* any websites you are involved with, in or featured on or named on; and
* any other publicly available online information about you of which the School should be made aware.
If you are shortlisted for the role, we may carry out an online search based on the information you provide in this form. If we carry out a search, we will also search more widely for any other online information about you.
You are not required to provide account passwords or to grant the School access to private social media accounts.
If you are not shortlisted for the role, online searches will not be carried out on you.
The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974, and the School 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; see https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/dbs-filtering-guidance) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.
Please note that feedback will only be provided to candidates whose applications progress to the interview stage. #J-18808-Ljbffr
