    Please find a link to the Department for Education Disqualification under the Childcare Act 2006 – statutory guidance for schools dated July 2018 (the statutory guidance) below.

    https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/disqualification-under-the-childcare-act-2006/disqualification-under-the-childcare-act-2006

    It sets out the circumstances in which individuals are disqualified from undertaking certain childcare work (relevant childcare work) under the relevant statutory provisions. As part of our safeguarding checks we are required to check whether any candidates who are seeking work that involves relevant childcare work are ‘disqualified’ from carrying out that type of work. Individuals may be disqualified because they have either been convicted of a relevant offence or are subject to a relevant order. Please review the statutory guidance which provides further details and sign below if you can confirm the following:

    I confirm that:

    • I have read the statutory guidance
    • I am not disqualified on any of the grounds set out in the statutory guidance
    • I will notify Edstaff Ltd immediately if any of the above changes

    Signed

    The Education (Health Standards) Regulations 2004 prohibit an individual from teaching if they do not have the health and physical capacity to do so. There is an exception to Section 60 of the Equality Act 2010 where health questions can be asked in order to establish whether the person will be able to undertake “a function which is intrinsic to the role”.

    The following questions on health and disability are asked in order to find out your needs in terms of reasonable adjustments to access our recruitment service and to find out your needs in order to perform the job or position sought.

    1. Do you have any health issues or a disability relevant to the role which may make it difficult for you to carry out functions which are essential for the role you seek?

      If yes, please specify

    2. If you have a disability, what are your needs in terms of reasonable adjustments in order to access this recruitment service and to attend interview, or to take aptitude tests etc.?

      Please specify

      3. IF YOU ANSWER YES TO ANY OF THE ABOVE, WE MAY REQUIRE YOU TO PROVIDE A DOCTORS FIT TO WORK NOTE

    3. Have you been retired on medical grounds

      If a teacher has been retired on medical grounds by the Department of Education after the 1st April 1997, this teacher will not be able to teach, even part time as they have been deemed medically unfit. However, if the teacher was retired before 1st April 1997 they may be able to work if they can show they have the health and physical capacity to teach. They can show they are fit to work by obtaining a GP’s letter confirming that they are fit to teach. However, even if they are confirmed as fit to teach they will only be able to work for 2.5 days per week.

      We must be satisfied that you are medically fit to return to teaching and it is your responsibility to tell us that you are in receipt of ill-health benefits. If you start work again in any form of teaching, lecturing or tutoring you must inform Teachers Pensions. Your pension will stop immediately. If you fail to inform Teachers Pensions that you have returned to work, you will have to pay back any pension paid to you since returning to work.

    In case of emergency please contact:
