CRB Check
In order to work with children, candidates on work placement MUST undertake a CRB check and your school will usually request this.
Most schools will be able to undertake this check or if not you can make a personal application and further details can be found at the website http://www.crb.homeoffice.gov.uk/
Please note that Home Learning College is unable to arrange this check and students must ensure that the proper arrangements are made either personally or via their school.
