Recruitment

At Pivot we believe children deserve better. In our Academies we teach and support children and young people who have been excluded from school, or for whom mainstream school isn’t the right environment for them to thrive. Every day our teams do incredible work, making a huge difference to some of the most complex and challenging children, many of whom come to us with some really traumatic backgrounds. We are doing great things – but we have so much more to do.

We are committed to safeguarding our young people and promoting the welfare of children and we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be subject to an enhanced Disclosure Barring Service check and appropriate referencing. It is an offence to apply for a role if you are barred from engaging in regulated activity relevant to children. 

During the shortlisting process, Pivot will carry out an online search on shortlisted candidates as part of its due diligence.

Should you be shortlisted for an interview, you are required to disclose details of cautions and convictions and you will be sent a self-disclosure form to do this. However, there are some exemptions under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act. To understand what you should disclose in your application form, please read the attached flowcharts.
