Whilst we endeavour to keep the recruitment process as short as possible due to the nature of these important checks it may extend the processing time.

Equal Opportunities:

All young people are equally entitled to have their needs met in a fair and balanced way. All staff are responsible for promoting equal opportunities for all and for challenging any behaviour or practice which discriminates against any young person or colleague on the grounds of race, religion, disability, age, gender, sexual orientation or any other perceived difference.
