There are, however, certain offences which will debar you from working with children under the regulations made under the Childrens Act, including Schedule 1 offences such as sexual and violent offences.
At interview, or in a separate discussion, we will ensure that an open and measured discussion takes place on the subject of any offences or other matter that might be relevant to the position.

The DBS will inform you of the result of their search and they will also send a copy of the result to Telford & Wrekin Council. This information will enable the Council to make its decision on possible employment.
We undertake to discuss any matter revealed in a Disclosure with the person seeking the position before withdrawing a conditional offer of employment.
The Councils policy on Criminal Record Checks is available on request from the Councils Human Resources Team.
For disclosure information and services please visit the DBS homepage on their web site www.homeoffice.gov.uk/dbs.
