In December 2012, the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) and Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) merged. They are now known as the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) - see criminalrecordservices.co.uk for further information.

For your peace of mind, I have an Enhanced DBS Disclosure (dated 17th January 2013) which you are welcome to inspect. I also welcome parents and guardians following the advice on child protection from TheTutorPages.com's Child Protection Interim Statement.

In any case, to ensure my own protection against the possibility of a malicious allegation one day, all of my face-to-face tuition with children takes place in an open, public space within the client's home, whilst a parent or guardian remains within earshot.
