For Osborne Cawkwell tutors

As an OC tutor you are required to obtain an enhanced disclosure from the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB). An Enhanced Disclosure is required for those regularly caring for, training, supervising or being in sole charge of children. We accept disclosures that have been issued by another organization in the last year before meeting you. If you do not have a recent one or have never applied for one, you will apply through OC. Once the process is complete, you will receive your own disclosure at your home address.

To apply for an enhanced disclosure, we need you to bring the following items:
  1. A chronological list of your addresses for the past 5 years (including post codes), starting with your current address and ending with where you lived 5 years ago
  2. Cash or a cheque for £30 made payable to Osborne Cawkwell (please note, this price is for OCEC tutors only as we subsidize part of the payment)
  3. Your national insurance number
  4. Proof of identity - we need to see a minimum of 3 original documents:
TWO of the following ...
  • passport
  • driving licence (with the paper counterpart)
  • birth certificate
... and ONE of the following which must show your current address:
  • P45/P60, Bank or P45/P60
  • Bank or building society statement (not more than three months old)
  • Utility Bill (not more than three months old)
  • TV Licence
  • Credit Card Statement
  • Store Card Statement
  • Mortgage Statement
  • Valid Insurance Certificate
  • Financial Statement (Pension, endowment, ISA)
  • Valid NHS Card
If you do not have any documents from the first list, then we require you to bring five documents from the second list.

If you have any doubt, do not hesitate to contact us at crb@oc-ec.com
