Police clearance form.

[timmy30]

Iv'e been asked to get a form from the police confirming that Iv'e never been convicted of anything naughty. Has anyone else ever had to get one of these for a job, what are they called?

[Jaglover]

I hope you are going to declare you are guilty of breaking and entering and assualt with a deadly weapon.

[speedy_thrills]

You need one of those police national computer (PNC) thingies I think. Have no idea why though, do you look suspiciously like a criminal?

[planetdave]

Consult with the criminal records bureau or the disclosure service.

Had one done, had to pay £10 for it I think.

it's a CRB police check for working with kids, not sure if they have other ones.

[staceyb]

I have to fill one out for my job every year,ive been a naughty boy in the past but nothing recent(i found the best policy is honesty,as it shows up),you can of been in trouble but nothing serious like noncing.

What they are looking for are nonces more than anything and have tightened up since that low life huntley got through the net.

Pity they didn't include checks like this to caretakers in schools, eh?

They will now,anyone connected to kids will need to fill one out.

I was told I needed one if I was offered a job in Adult Education I applied for as there was a Creshe (sp) on the premises

[timmy30]

This is so I could work in the Bahammas actually.

[billb]

yep had one done when joined here but employer pays for it

[timmy30]

So if I wander down to the local station will the BiBs have a clue what I'm going on about? Or will they arrest me for being a nutter under the POT?

If they have been following your activities on PH then they might

[Plotloss]

Its whats called a CRB check.

An enhanced one is £34 and a normal one is £28
(we think)

You fill in a form with your name, DOB, previous addresses etc and the CRB check your record and send you a printout which you give to your employers.

[rpguk]

Your employer will probably have an account with an agent, theres more info at www.disclosure.gov.uk/

Got one completed so that I could be a parent helper with my kids' Beaver troop.

Didn't pay anything for it though...
