Frequently Asked Questions – Liability

Q - If I have prior criminal convictions can I still help with EOTC events?

A - The Ministry of Education publication “Safety and Education outside the classroom – A good practice guide for New Zealand schools” recommends that schools should carefully select any extra supervisors required to supervise (EOTC) events, but this is a matter for each school board. Schools may consider having police vetting carried out on volunteers for some EOTC events, especially residential events.
