CRB Checks
As a Criminal Records Bureau Enhanced Disclosure is a requirement for working with children and young people, the person you choose to use for any practical teaching should be someone within your school or workplace, where you will already have a CRB Enhanced Disclosure.
If you choose to work with someone from outside that environment then you will have to apply for a CRB check through Dyslexia Action and pay an additional fee of £60.
You should allow AT LEAST 6 WEEKS to process any CRB application and this must be in place before any face to face work with a learner. Please visit www.crb.gov.uk for further information.
