Yes, All Our Tutors Are DBS Checked – Here’s Why That Matters

We know how important it is for parents to feel confident in the safety and professionalism of the tutors working with their children. One of the first questions we are often asked is, “Are the tutors DBS checked?” The answer is yes, and here’s why we believe it’s a vital part of our commitment to high-quality, trusted tutoring.

What is a DBS Check?

A DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check is a background check that provides information on a person’s criminal record and any information held by the police that may affect their suitability for working with children. DBS checks are essential for safeguarding in educational settings, giving families peace of mind that the tutors interacting with their children have been thoroughly vetted.

Why DBS Checks Matter

Safety and trust are our highest priorities. We believe that, for parents, feeling secure in the tutors’ backgrounds is crucial. By ensuring all our tutors are DBS checked, we hope to demonstrate that is a place where professionalism, transparency, and safety come first and are vital to us maintaining a great reputation.

How We Maintain High Standards

In addition to DBS checks, we take several other steps to ensure our tutors are qualified, compassionate, and well-prepared to support every child’s educational journey. This includes ongoing training and support, particularly around neurodiversity, to provide your child with the most supportive learning environment possible.

Our Commitment to Families

Choosing a tutor can feel like a big decision. We want you to be assured that every tutor has been vetted and is committed to providing not just knowledge but also a safe, encouraging environment for learning.

For the past 20+ years I have been a firm believer that learning should be an enjoyable experience. I appreciate that traditionally education has revolved around worksheets, textbooks, listening to teachers. But a grounding in early years and working with children who had a variety of learning styles from I learned that it is an individual activity that is personal to all of us. We don’t all learn in the same way. Our influences, our experiences, our capabilities all influence how we retain information. But through it all, I believe that if we can make it enjoyable and engaging, they will want to participate. With participation comes practice which in turn boosts skill and confidence. With an increase in skill and confidence comes a willingness to have a go. This in turn leads to more practice which leads to a positive spiral of success. The moral, we need to make learning fun, engaging, use a range of techniques.
