I take your child’s well-being extremely seriously
As someone who also works in the UK state school system, I am regularly and randomly background checked by the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). This to check that I:
Have no convictions, cautions, reprimands or warnings
Am not on the list held under Section 142 of the Education Act 2002
Am not on the ISA Children’s Barred List
Am not on the ISA Vulnerable Adults’ Barred List
No other relevant information is held about me by the Chief of Police Officers
When your child is in my home for a music lesson:
I have a duty of care to ensure their safety
My door is permanently unlocked, allowing parents and carers access at any time
Parents or carers may choose to stay in the room, if they and the child so wish
My room is clearly visable from outside (my garden, the bowling club and beyond)
I accompany very young children off my property to be certain that they get into parents’ cars etc.
