Safeguarding & Vetting
Safety is our priority...
- As a specialist SEND recruiter, child safety and welfare is absolutely paramount to us. That is why we conduct thorough checks on all our candidates.
- The first stage is verbal vetting by telephone. This allows us to assess the suitability of a candidate by discussing their relevant work experience, exploring their CV and seeking to understand their requirements for their next role. Only suitable candidates will be invited for a face-to-face interview.
- We meet all of our prospective candidates in person. This is partly to ensure that we provide a personal service, to be certain we are matching the correct candidates to schools in terms of personality and cultural fit. It also helps us complete the relevant forms with the candidate, and independently verify their identification documents. This stage of the process enables us to get to know the candidate better.
- We will talk through their experience in more detail, ensure they will be a credit to the school that we place them in and that they meet our high expectations. We will also discuss and verify any relevant qualifications and training that the candidate may have.
- At the interview, we will request the following information from the candidate. We aim to have all documentation verified and checked so that the candidate is cleared for work as quickly as possible:
- When confirming each and every booking with a school, we supply the above information in a one-page Vetting Form, so that you can be assured we are adhering to the highest standards and only providing quality, vetted candidates.
