Disclosure Scotland is the organisation used by the government to vet people applying for jobs to work with young/vulnerable people. For each applicant, they search for any criminal convictions, reprimands, warnings, cautions and any other relevant information which may affect their ability to work with young people. To pass vetting with Disclosure Scotland, our instructors must have none of these.
