ONLINE JOB APPLICATION FORM - please read guidance notes then scroll down to complete application

1) REFERENCES - Please supply two references, preferably from your last 2 employers. If you do not have 2 previous employers, then you may provide personal references but they must not be family or close friends. 2) CRIMINAL RECORD - The job for which you are applying involves substantial access to children and is therefore exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. You are therefore required to declare any convictions or cautions you may have, even if they would otherwise be regarded as ‘spent’. 3) ENHANCED DISCLOSURE & BARRING SERVICE (DBS) CHECK - The position is subject to the receipt of a clear Enhanced DBS Check. If an offer of employment is made and you do not receive clearance from such check, we may either withdraw our offer or terminate your employment. 4) DBS UPDATE SERVICE - If you already hold an Enhanced DBS Certificate for the Child Workforce on the Update Service, you can enter your Certificate Number on the application form. In doing so, you confirm that you give Clocktower Childcare Ltd the authority to receive update information (within the meaning of section 116A of the Police Act 1997) in relation to your criminal record Certificate for the purposes of asking an exempted question within the meaning of section 113A of the Police Act 1997; or in relation to your enhanced criminal record Certificate for the purposes of asking an exempted question for a prescribed purpose within the meaning of section 113B of the Police Act 1997. Please note, should you succeed the interview stage, we would need sight of your original DBS Certificate to confirm; 1. It is Enhanced; 2. It is for the Child Workforce; and 3. The issue date. 4) GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATIONS (GDPR) – Consent Form for Job Applicants - We are required to collect and hold data about applicants to enable the company to process job applications.
