A DBS is a document containing impartial and confidential criminal history information held by the police and government departments which can be used by employers or others to make safer recruitment decisions. DBS information could include: Details of criminal records Information about a person’s inclusion on children’s or adult’s lists Other relevant information held by a local police force or Government Body Or state that there is no information The cost of a DBS check is £44. You will be invited into The Aviation Academy in the summer to complete the DBS application form as you are required to provide a selection of documents to confirm your identity and current address (further details will be sent to you in the summer 2016). Without a DBS check you won't be allowed to enrol on your course - so you must attend a session in the summer to complete the application form.
