The School Staffing (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2015
The School Staffing (England) Regulations 2009 (“the 2009 Regulations”) set out, among other matters, the checks that the governing body of a maintained school in England must make to ensure the suitability of prospective new members of staff at the school. These Regulations amend the 2009 Regulations to reflect changes made by the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 to the circumstances in which the Disclosure and Barring Service (“DBS”) can be asked to carry out checks.
