The Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to actively share this commitment. All appointments will be subject to pre-employment checks, including an enhanced check with the Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS), as well as scrutiny of employment history, robust referencing and online searches, in line with Safer Recruitment guidance and the need to maintain a safe culture.

It is an offence to apply for a role if you are barred from engaging in regulated activity. 

Our safeguarding culture is underpinned by policies and procedures which encourage and promote safe working practice across the Trust.  On joining you will be required to undergo continuous professional development to maintain safe working practice and to safeguard our children and young people.
