Southport Learning Trust is required under law and guidance to check the criminal background of 
all employees. Decisions to appoint will be subject to consideration of an enhanced disclosure, 
including a Barred List check, from the Disclosure and Barring Service. Because of the nature of the 
work for which you are applying, this post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 
(Exceptions) Order 1975 (as amended in 2013 and 2020).

The amendments to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (2013 and 
2020) provides that when applying for certain jobs and activities, certain convictions and cautions

they are disclosed, employers cannot take them into account.

Guidance about whether a conviction or caution should be disclosed can be found on the Ministry 
of Justice website, which can be accessed here:
