We will seek references as detailed above and may approach other previous employers for information to verify particular experiences or qualifications. We may also ask previous employers for information about disciplinary offences relating to children or young people, including any in which the penalty is ‘time expired or spent’ (that is where a warning could no longer be taken into account in any new disciplinary hearing for example) and whether the applicant has been the subject of any child protection concerns. This information is required, including that related to warnings regarded as ‘time expired or spent’ in order to ensure safe recruitment and meet our obligations to safeguard children. However, you should be aware that any disciplinary history declared will not automatically prevent or inhibit appointment and will depend on the dates and circumstances related to the disciplinary action, outcomes and the type of post being applied for. Note that you are also required to include information if you were subject to a disciplinary process but resigned before it was completed.

Please provide any details below if you have ever been the subject of formal disciplinary proceedings. If there are none, please write ‘none’:

I understand that if, after appointment, any information is found to be inaccurate, this may lead to disciplinary action that may result in dismissal without notice and possible referral to the police.
