Our Advanced Courses require that students work directly and individually with vulnerable people and / or children. In order to ensure we maintain our duty of care towards students and their clients, please indicate:
Have you ever been subject to expulsion from a professional body?
Have you ever been the subject of a disciplinary process with a professional body or in a place of work?
Have you ever been convicted of a criminal offence (including any spent conviction, caution, or bind-over order)?
Answering "yes" to these questions will not necessarily prevent you from successfully gaining a place on the course; however, failure to disclose at this stage, or making a false or an inaccurate declaration, may result in termination of your training. If you have answered "yes" to any of these questions, we will contact you for further details and to discuss your individual situation.
I would be prepared to undertake an Enhanced DBS check if required for my course, and understand that there is a fee which I would need to pay (see the DBS website page for details)
