What is APSCo Compliance+?

APSCo has developed Compliance+ to provide an uncompromising quality benchmark for education recruitment companies. The requirements of Compliance+ compel education recruitment companies to go beyond statutory safeguarding standards, and to aim for excellence in competency selection and service quality.

Why APSCo Compliance+?

Compliance+ gives us the framework within which to provide you with better-prepared, better-suited, better trained and therefore safer candidates. Flourish Education will be audited on at least an annual basis by an independent professional and continuous improvement will be required.

We take Safeguarding and compliance very seriously at Flourish Education

Flourish Education have attained the REC’s Audited Award as well as being members of industry bodies: REC and APSCo, which were both set up to raise the standards in recruitment for compliance. Audits will be undertaken by independent, experienced teaching professionals, or by independent, professional auditors that specialise in auditing situations where the safeguarding of vulnerable people is involved. 

Feedback from our Independent Auditor, Martin Kent, was really good. It was evident from the Director downwards, that Flourish Education have a clear commitment to safer recruitment. All the staff interviewed were able to demonstrate a clear understanding of the requirements of safer recruitment.
