Part 2 - Job-related information


Disability
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Disabled People defines a disabled person as someone who has
long-term physical, mental, intellectual or sensory impairments, which in interaction with various barriers may hinder
their full and effective participation in society on an equal basis with others.
We welcome applicants with disabilities, and will consider adjustments that can be made, if they are successful at
shortlisting and interview, where they do not interfere with the requirements of exam boards and requirement of the
candidates.

Part 4 - References and additional information


Please give details of three referees that we may contact. We will only do this after we have made a conditional offer
to you of work, if you are successful after shortlisting and interview.
Criminal Convictions
In the event of a positive disclosure, an applicant’s suitability to work with children will be judged on a case by case
basis by taking into account the seriousness and nature of the offence/s, nature of appointment, age of offence/s and
frequency of the offence/s. The fact that a person has a criminal record does not automatically make him or her
unsuitable to work with children.
