Protecting our children is one of our highest priorities, that's why all our staff and volunteers have a Working With Children Clearance.
Working With Children Clearance (WWCC)
Under the Child Protection [Working With Children] Act 2012 [NSW] and the Child Protection [Working with Children] Regulation 2013 [NSW] the College can only employ persons (who will be engaged in child-related work) who hold a WWCC clearance from the NSW Office of the Children’s Guardian. The College has determined that all employees must hold this clearance.
All Employment Applications must confirm that the applicant holds the required clearance. Production of the WWCC letter will be required at any subsequent interview.
Obtaining WWCC Clearance
- Complete an online application form available at Service NSW or the NSW Office of the Children's Guardian
- When submitted on-line, the applicant will receive an Application Number
- Take this Number together with proof of identity to a local service centre
- An $80 (tax deductible) charge applies for a five year clearance.
Identity Checklist
The College must also ask candidates to provide documents to support their identity. This must include original documents adding up to a minimum of 100 points as required by the 100 Point Check under the Financial Transaction Reports Act 1988. A range of documents can be used; please read checklist below carefully.
