DETAILS OF ONLINE PROFILE
Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE) asks schools to carry out online searches on shortlisted candidates as part of the process of assessing suitability.
The School uses a third-party provider to conduct online searches of social media platforms on its behalf.
You (and all other candidates) are therefore required to provide the following information as part of your application:
any websites you are involved with, in or featured on or named on; and
any other publicly available online information about you of which the School should be made aware.
If you are shortlisted for the role, we may carry out an online search based on the information you provide in this form and the following information which you will be asked to provide directly to the third-party provider:
the social media platforms on which you have accounts; and
the account names/handles for all of your social media accounts, including any under a nickname or pseudonym.
If we carry out a search, we will also search more widely for any other online information about you.
You are not required to provide account passwords or to grant the school access to private social media accounts.
If you are not shortlisted for the role, online searches will not be carried out on you.
Prohibition from teaching, prohibition from management and disqualification from providing childcare
The School is not permitted to employ anyone to carry out ‘teaching work’ if they are prohibited from doing so. For these purposes ‘teaching work’ includes:
planning and preparing lessons and courses for pupils;
delivering lessons to pupils; assessing the development, progress and attainment of pupils; and
reporting on the development, progress and attainment of pupils.
The above activities do not amount to ‘teaching work’ if they are supervised by a qualified teacher or other person nominated by the Head.
The School is also not permitted to employ anyone to work in a management position if they are prohibited from being involved in the management of an independent school. This applies to the following positions at the School:
Head Teacher;
Deputy Head Teacher;
Heads of Section (including Heads of Schools);
teaching posts on the senior leadership team;
teaching posts which carry a departmental head role;
professional support staff posts on the senior leadership team.
The School is also not permitted to employ anyone to work in a position which involves the provision of ‘childcare’ if they are disqualified from providing ‘childcare’. For these purposes ‘childcare’ includes:
all supervised activities before, during and after the school day for children in our early years provision i.e. for a child up to 1 September following their 5th birthday; and
provision for children who are not in our early years provision and who are under the age of 8, which takes place on the school premises before or after the school day.
