Safer Recruitment for School Managers
Wednesday, 09 November 2022
09:30 - 12:00
Undertaking this training meets
the requirements of the School Staffing (England) Regulations 2009 for at least
one panel member who conducts an interview in a maintained school to have
undertaken safer recruitment training.
This course is available for new and existing customers to attend.
Safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children starts
with ensuring that staff and volunteers are selected and vetted in line with
statutory requirements intended to robustly assess their suitability to work
with children and young people.
What will the course cover?
- The legal context of recruitment and selection process
and planning
-
Shortlisting,
employment references, interviewing and decision making
- Conditional
offers, DBS checks and the single central register (SCR), data protection and
induction
Whilst
the focus of the course is predominantly focussed on safer recruitment, we also
consider the employment law context and best practice principles in selection
and appointment, to ensure a broader understanding of the risks associated with
getting the process wrong. Although there is certain minimum content to be
covered, there is an opportunity to focus in on particular areas of the process
according to delegates’ roles.
Delegates will gain an understanding
of:
-
How to be
better equipped to participate in the process of recruitment
-
Safer recruitment in relation to KCSiE requirements
- Employment law & best practice principles
Who will benefit:
This workshop is aimed at all those with a responsibility for recruitment, including those who may be shortlisting and interviewing staff, as well as those responsible for undertaking vetting checks.
