As the College supports a number of children and vulnerable adults, all staff are exempt from Section 4(2) of the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. Accordingly, all staff will be subject to an ‘Enhanced’ DBS (formerly CRB) check, along with a Children’s Barred List check if in regulated activity. Any offers of appointment may be withdrawn if these checks prove to be unsatisfactory to the College. Self-disclosure will be required as part of the recruitment process. If you fail to make a full disclosure or provide sight of your DBS certificate then your offer of employment is likely to be withdrawn. The College's DBS policy covers the recruitment of ex-offenders which is available upon request.
In line with KCSIE (Keeping Children Safe Within Education) guidance we conduct social media checks for all candidates whom are shortlisted for roles in order to ascertain their suitability to work with children and young adults.
We particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates as they are under represented within London South East Colleges at this level".
