To ask if my sons criminal record can effect my job?

[SandraDea]

My son is a troubled teen with a suspected MH issue and frequently in trouble with the police.

My job is working with children within a school environment and my friend seems to think that my sons behaviour could somehow effect my job because I work with children.

I don’t see how as I obviously don’t have a criminal record and have a fully enhanced DBS check.

Should I be worried?

Isn't that just.for certain crimes ?? I thought it was of EG a partner.had a.history.of.sexual.offences.

That advice is out of date - any declaration forms should now be shredded by schools as this advice is out of date as set out by the DfE in their amendments to KCSIE, September, 2018.

The disqualification by association was a short lived rule that is now not applicable to schools or 'childcare not on domestic premises' but is applicable to childminders.

Their was a head teacher who was determined to stay with her husband who was a registered sex offender raped a little girl😕

The school couldn’t get rid despite trying in the end the parents voted with their feet and forced her out

I had to declare that I didn't live with anyone with a conviction and I've never had any interaction with social services. I'm not sure what would have happened if I had.

Not sure if this applies now or could do in future, but it is my understanding that staff living on-site in boarding schools have to have all members of their households vetted, including any children over a certain age (16, I think).
