At least one member of our selection panel will have attended a safer recruitment training course and gained certification. All staff working at Barnes will be subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check before taking up post. There is a culture of ongoing vigilance that ensures children are safe and secure with the adults they come into contact with at all times. References will be sought and checked and all staff are fully aware of the actions they should take if they have any concerns about the behaviour of a fellow staff member towards children.
The governors wish to appoint somebody who is motivated to achieve as a Learning Support Assistant, who will work alongside a pupil requiring additional support in a Y4 class. The child is delightful and will benefit greatly from this additional support.
