FROM MAY 2015'S RECRUITER MAGAZINE

Lauren Thompson joins education staffing specialist Classpeople as compliance officer.

Thompson’s appointment follows changes to ‘disqualification by association’ legislation. 

The Department for Education published guidance announcing ‘disqualification by association’ late last year and updated in February this year. 

The rules effectively bar people from working with children under the age of eight if they live or work in the same household as someone who is disqualified from working with young children.

Thompson, who will head up compliance for all of Classpeople’s branches, joins from online course provider learndirect where she was a job coach.
