Section 3 - Criminal Record

An offer of employment is conditional upon Mount St Mary’s College/ Barlborough Hall School receiving a satisfactory enhanced Disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). If you are successful in your application you will be required to complete a DBS disclosure application form. Any information disclosed will be handled in accordance with the Code of Practice published by the Disclosure and Barring Service. The School is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and therefore convictions, cautions, reprimands and final warnings including those which would normally be considered “spent” under the Act must be declared. The amendments to the Exceptions Order 1975 (2013) provide that certain spent convictions and cautions are ‘protected’ and are not subject to disclosure to employers , and cannot be taken into account. Further details on filtering of convictions can be found on eth DBS website, https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/dbs-filtering-guidance/dbs-filtering-guide. If you have a criminal record this will not automatically debar you from employment. Instead, each case will be assessed fairly.

Yes

The Equalities Act 2010 states that a person has a disability if they have a physical or mental impairment which has a long-term and substantial adverse effect on their ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities.

The Mount St Marys School guarantees an interview to applicants that identify as having a disability and meet the essential short listing requirements.
