**Adiamond** · 22-04-2009, 06:18 AM

No, social service checks are totally different to the crb's

if you just ring ofsted they will tell you if they have come back or not

This wasn't mentioned to us at all in any part of our training or induction!

**Zoomie** · 22-04-2009, 12:45 PM

Yes, nothing was mentioned to us either ... but I realised from this forum that there was ss checks, which is why I included it, cos it has held up some applications.
