Why screen teachers & support staff?

Background screening of educators is an important measure towards safeguarding student welfare, maintaining reputation, legal compliance, ethical & professional standards, and to protect the organisation against liability.

Student safety

Background screening helps identify any potential risks or red flags that could jeopardize the safety of students. It allows educational institutions to identify candidates with a history of criminal activity or inappropriate behaviour, ensuring that only trustworthy individuals are entrusted with the care and education of children.

Professional standards

Background screening reinforces the importance of upholding ethical and professional standards in the teaching profession. It helps identify candidates with the necessary qualifications, experience, and character traits to be effective educators and positive role models for students.

Trusted environment

Background screening helps evaluate the professionalism and ethical conduct of personnel. This includes assessing their past employment history, references, and qualifications, ensuring they possess the necessary skills and experience to carry out their responsibilities effectively.

Compliance & Liability

By conducting background screenings, educational institutions can identify individuals who may pose a risk to students or the school community. This proactive approach can help mitigate the risk of incidents such as abuse, misconduct, or negligence, thereby reducing potential legal and financial liabilities
