Before starting to help in a Holbeton Primary School, volunteers should read our Volunteer policy and complete the Volunteer Agreement (Appendix 2), which sets out the  expectations of volunteers and asks volunteers to confirm they have received a copy of the policy.

Holbeton Primary School will seek enhanced DBS clearance for any regular volunteers before they come into the setting to protect the staff and children. Volunteers without prior DBS checks will not be left alone with children and will be supervised by a member of staff, as per KCSIE requirements.

Volunteers will be given a copy of the latest version KCSIE (Part 1) to read before starting and sign to confirm they have read and understood KCSIE, the Child Protection and Safeguarding policy and the WeST Code of Conduct.
