Committed to creating safe and positive environments.

Leeds Supply Service has over 20 years of experience of recruiting candidates into schools and specialist educational settings. During this time our candidates have worked and supported some of the most venerable and hard to engage young people within the education system. The huge responsibility for safer recruitment and ongoing safeguarding when providing candidates into specialist educational settings is not lost on Leeds Supply Service and nothing is more important to us than safer recruitment.

We go above and beyond DfE’s ‘Keeping Children Safe 2020’ recommendations and uphold the Recruitment & Employment Confederation (REC) standards for education recruitment. Providing our clients and candidates with total transparency and confidence in our recruitment and selection processes is of great important to us.

We carry out over 20 checks as part of our recruitment and selection process, below is a list of some of the higher profile checks we carry out;

• DBS checks – every 6 months.
• Children’s barred list check – every 6 months.
• Prohibition checks (NCTL) – every 6 months.
• Disqualification by association declaration.
• 2 year work history fully referenced.
• 10 year work history with no gaps over 3 months.
• Proof of identity – original documents seen.
• Proof of Address – original documents seen.
• Proof of qualifications– original documents seen.
• Face to face interview with every candidate.

We are very keen to discuss our safer recruitment and child safeguarding policies and CPD measures with you to provide complete peace of mind. Please get in touch to book your safer recruitment consultation.
