You must disclose all unspent convictions of any offence, or any offence for which you are currently under investigation. You do not have to tell us about any convictions that are spent (as defined by the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974), or about any cautions, reprimands or final warnings.
You must also disclose any 'relevant' convictions, meaning convictions for offences against a person, whether of a violent or sexual nature, and convictions involving unlawful supplying of or possession of controlled drugs or substances.
Declaring a conviction will not necessarily prevent you from being offered a place at the College, but failure to disclose something which we later become aware of could result in disciplinary action.
Please note that some of our courses, such as Health and Social Care and Child Care, will involve placement roles that require an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. These are therefore exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974, and will require you to disclose both spent and unspent convictions, as well as cautions, reprimands and final warnings in the context of legislation on safeguarding children and vulnerable adults.
For further advice about convictions that are spent or unspent please contact the NACRO on 0300 123 1999 or helpline@nacro.org.uk
