One of the things that has been criticised in past cases is that some serious offenders had had multiple reports to the police, arrests, etc. but had never actually been convicted and so could carry on working with children, moving from job-to-job without the information being shared. Surely we can expect that prospective employers are intelligent enough to know that a one-off false accusation that has been found not guilty can safely be ignored. If however someone has had 10 such cases dismissed then there may be cause for concern. Having not guilty on a DBS check is exactly that and anyone with half a brain can see what it means.
You would think so but I’m afraid that just doesn’t happen.
Just look at the amount of businesses that enforce ridiculous rules due to paranoid over zealous health and safety officers.
All the companies the hide behind data protection rules when it comes to talking to you (even if it doesn’t involve talking about anything personal).
