This role involves a high level of contact with children and is deemed regulated activity. Successful applications should be considered suitable to work with children and will be expected to undergo an enhanced DBS check, with child barred list, and other checks as part of safer recruitment practices. We will carry out online searches (including social media) to help identify any incidents or issues that are publicly available online and relevant to your suitability to work with children. No member of staff will be able to start until these checks are complete and this process takes, on average, a month.

We reserve the right to interview and appoint before the closing date should a suitable candidate apply. Applications will be processed as they are received and interviews may take place before the closing date, so early application is recommended.
