North Kent College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, and all staff have a responsibility to share and maintain this commitment. In line with the requirements of 'Keeping Children Safe in Education', appropriate safeguarding checks (including an enhanced DBS check) will be undertaken on all individuals selected for appointment. Posts at the College, a specified establishment where the work gives opportunity for contact with children, are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (ROA) 1974. It is an offence to apply for a post which involves engaging in regulated activity relevant to children if you are barred from doing so. Please be advised that, again in line with 'Keeping Children Safe in Education', shortlisted candidates (who wish to accept an invite to interview) will be required to complete and submit prior to their interview a self‑declaration of their criminal record or information that would make them unsuitable to work with children.
