Onboarding
Please only use this page if you have been asked by our HR department to do so.
Since any adult working in an educational environment will be working with children, the academy follows the most rigorous pre-employment checks to satisfy our 'safer recruitment' amd safeguarding duties. These checks take time and we need to make sure that each prospective member of staff has provided us from an early stage with the information and evidence we need to be able to carry out the checks and receive the relevant confirmations in good time. Prospective staff members cannot start at the academy until checks are complete.
To carry out our checks we need to see some original documents. Please note that we cannot accept scans, photocopies, photos or printouts from the internet. This means online bank statements or online utiility bills are no use. We can use an online bank statement which has been printed provided the bank has stamped it to show it is authentic. We cannot accept mobile telephone bills. The original documents we need are as follows
Three out of the following four;
- Current passport
- Current photocard driving licence
- Birth certificate
- Bank, Building Society or Credit card statement dated within the last three months.
- Utility bill dated within the last three months.
Plus; if you have ever had a different name;
- Marriage certificate if you have married and changed your name or
- Legal evidence if you have changed your name, for example by deed poll.
Plus; Proof of national insurance number - usually the NI card or a P45 or P60.
Plus, if you are a teacher or leader or applying for such a role;
- your degree certificate(s)
- your QTS certificate if you have QTS
- your induction certificate if you have passed your induction year
Plus, for any role, proof of qualifications if you are relying on such qualifications to secure the role.
Please therefore complete, sign and bring in to us, the above evidence and the following documents as soon as possible.
