Safer Recruitment and DBS

All posts involving direct contact with children are exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. However, amendments to the Exceptions Order 1975 (2013 & 2020) provide that certain spent convictions and cautions are ‘protected’ and not subject to disclosure. Shortlisted candidates will be asked for details of unspent convictions. Successful candidates are expected to undergo enhanced DBS and barred lists checks.

All positions at Kido commit to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children. We ensure recruitment procedures meet safer recruitment policy standards and selection criteria prevent unsuitable people from gaining access to children.

Kido is an equal opportunities employer.
