This guide serves as an important resource for Children’s Martial Arts instructors to better understand the requirements for safe recruitment practices ensuring that children can learn martial arts in a secure environment.

What is the PVG Scheme?

The Protecting Vulnerable Groups (PVG) Scheme helps ensure people who are unsuitable to work with children and protected adults cannot work with these vulnerable groups.


PVG Checks from a previous Employer

An employee’s or potential employee’s PVG certificate from another employer does not give your business up to date disclosure information, such as new vetting information that may have been added, a barring, or considerations for listing. Without directly linking your business to an employee’s PVG Scheme membership by getting a new PVG check, you will not receive ongoing notifications about the employees suitability to work.


Which roles are eligible for PVG Checks in Martial Arts clubs?


How do I request a PVG Check for my employee?

You can obtain a PVG Scheme check for Children’s Martial Arts Instructors, Martial Arts Coaches or positions with line management responsibility to these - from Scottish Disclosures.
