As Mary Frances Trust meets the requirements in respect of exempted convictions under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act (1974), all applicants who are offered employment will be subject to a criminal record check from the Disclosure and Barring Service before appointment is confirmed. This will include details of cautions, reprimands or final warnings, as well as convictions.
If you are invited for interview you will be asked to submit appropriate written details and dates in confidence of all criminal record information, including details and dates of “spent” convictions, caution, reprimands and final warnings.
