Common Purpose - Your Turn - criminal records checks

John Walker made this Freedom of Information request to Norfolk Constabulary

This request has been closed to new correspondence. Contact us if you think it should be reopened.

The request was partially successful.

Dear Sir or Madam,

Common Purpose - Your Turn - criminal records checks

An "educational charity" called Common Purpose encourages its members to identify 12-15 year olds for training before placement on so-called "Your Turn" training courses:

http://www.commonpurpose.org.uk/home/pro...

I am concerned that some of this training may be carried out by people who have not had the statutory criminal records checks.

1. What is your policy and what systems do you have in place for ensuring that people who train children on Common Purpose courses have passed the necessary criminal records checks?

2. Please supply evidence/records that you have that Common Purpose trainers who deal with children have passed the necessary criminal records checks.

Yours faithfully,

John Walker
