with our students and he did not have a Police Check but had applied for a
Working With Children check and the Department of Ed & the Department Of
Justice had both said that his application would take 8 weeks to come through
and that the school should accept the copy of the application with proof that
he had paid for it and lodged it, so that he could begin his work. As we
have had no formal guidelines from D.E.&.T regarding this as yet I
contacted Conduct & Ethics and the response is below for your info.
In short we can accept volunteers etc if they have a Working with children
check or proof that they have lodged the application in lieu of a Police check.
Just saves us all chasing the same information.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

font-family:Arial'>I spoke to you earlier this morning regarding the Working
With Children check for volunteers in schools. You can accept the WWC
check for volunteers in schools. At the moment we can accept either a CRC
or WWC for volunteers and as of the end of 2007 it will be a requirement for
all in schools to have a WWC check. I have been advised that a circular is
to go out to all schools very soon explaining about the new arrangements to do
with the WWC check. Also you can accept the receipt from the post office
for the WWC check, you don’t have to wait for the volunteer to have the
card to begin volunteer work.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
