What is a DBS?

DBS stands for Disclosure and Barring Service. We require all our LSP's to have carried out at least a Basic DBS check. Those LSP's that work with children or vulnerable persons will need to have an advanced check

You can apply for a basic Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check to get a copy of your criminal record. This is called ‘basic disclosure’ and costs £23. It is available for people working in England and Wales and can be applied for here.

For those LSP's that work in our Education Team then an enhanced DBS is required.
