DISABILITY

Do you have a Disability?

If your application is successful, it is conditional upon the school receiving a satisfactory Enhanced Disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). You will be required to complete a DBS application form. Any information disclosed will be handled in accordance with the Code of Practice published by the DBS.

The school is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and therefore all convictions, cautions, reprimands and final warnings (including those which would normally be considered ‘spent’ under the Act) must be declared. If you have a criminal record this will not automatically debar you from employment. Instead, each case will be assessed fairly by reference to the school’s objective assessment procedure.
