The new Vetting and Barring Scheme (VBS) came into effect on Monday 12th October 2009 and has a impact on all organisations working with Children & Young People. It aims to help organisations increase protection of children and vulnerable adults, by improving the current provisions for screening potential volunteers and employees.
It plans to do this through a registration system, stopping people who the Scheme decides are unsuitable from volunteering (or trying to volunteer) with children and vulnerable adults. The VBS will integrate all 4 of the lists that indicate that someone should not work with children and/or vulnerable adults (The POCA & POVA lists; The Information held under Section 142 of the Education Act 2002 - formerly List 99 - and The Disqualification Order Regime), into one list, of those barred from working with children, and a separate (but aligned) list of people who should not work with vulnerable adults.
Safer Recruitment: Safe environments do not happen by accident. They are purposefully built and carefully maintained. Safe recruitment and selection processes are essential if schools and care establishments are to attract best staff and deter and reject those who may pose a risk to children or who are unsuited to work with them.
The course is designed to support the DfES guidance "Safeguarding Children an Safer Recruitment in Education" and includes the new "Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2008"
Our Half day Briefing will provide you with the latest up to date information on the new Vetting & Barring Scheme and also Safer Recruitment Practice
