Given that the board members will have access to the addresses of children under that age of 16, I feel that this is enough reason for CRB checks to be
undertaken.

I was CRB checked a year ago because I supported disabled students, which makes sense (even though I had the full on Enhanced check and all it does is check to see what the police have on you - Name changes and or careful law-breaking never turns up...). As I indicated before, CRB checking a bunch of bureaucrats seemed both expensive and time-wasting. If board members were going to take up going into schools and doing workshops, I could understand it, but the interim board seems to be dedicated to mostly form filling.

I was CRB checked a few years for some freelance work I did with
homeless people. Working with directly children *and* vulnerable
people requires checks.
