The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) is responsible for issuing DBS Certificates, having taken over the task from the former Criminal Records Bureau. The DBS launched the Update Service in June 2013, which provides a new and more robust process for checking individuals’ criminal records.
The Update Service allows for routine safeguarding checks to be undertaken via an online portal. The check ensures no new information has come to light since the DBS was first taken. The Update Service potentially means that a person will only need to apply for one DBS Certificate (providing they subscribe to the Update Service and maintain annual renewal). New employers can ask to see the DBS Certificate and then use the online facility to carry out a status check to confirm information is still correct and if any new information has been added. In the latter case a new Certificate would be requested.
As REC members Three R’s Teacher Recruitment undertake a status update check annually on all candidates working within schools. This provides an additional layer of protection to schools and is more frequent than the base limits established by the DBS.
Routine online update checks are undertaken. For example if a candidate is changing position or role or has worked for another employer on their last placement. All newly registered teachers are required to complete a new DBS or provide an original Certificate to us that is registered with the online Update Service. Permission is gained in writing for us to undertake a status update check.
The Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC) is the professional body dedicated to representing the interests of the UK’s Recruitment Industry in Parliament, Whitehall, the European Commission and to press and opinion formers.
Nicki and her team actually listen to my preferences and have always provided me with as much (or little) work as I want, at schools I enjoy teaching at. I much prefer a friendly text or quick call checking my availability to the online diary that a certain agency’s consultants don’t even seem to check. If you’re looking to be treated like a valued professional who understands how they can best contribute through supply teaching then speak to Three R’s Teacher Recruitment.”
“I just wanted to say a big thank you for all your help over the past few months. I have really enjoyed my ‘taster’ of supply work! Just to let you know that I won’t be needing any more work this term and then I’m off on my adventures in the new year!!
“Dear Leah, I just wanted to send a little email to say thank you for all your help in finding work this year and for just being awesome! If there is a review somewhere that I can fill in for you, then I will definitely do that – hope the 3rs know how lucky they are to have you!”
I just wanted to write and tell you how grateful we are for our two long-term supply cover posts. Both have come into school and taken over seamlessly. Even though they have only been here a few days, they already feel part of our TEAM and are doing an excellent job.
