Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) Disclosure Process
All students accepting a place on the MPharm course will be required to have an enhanced CRB check. Throughout the course you will be involved in placements, meeting members of the public and interacting with patients and other healthcare professionals. The CRB check helps to ensure that we maintain the safety of all those involved in the MPharm programme.
The requirement for a CRB check applies to all students who have been resident in the UK for more than two months. In addition, international students will be required to provide similar evidence from their home country. Details of the precise documentation required will be sent prior to enrolment.
If you have any convictions, cautions, reprimands, warnings or penalty notice disorders you should contact us to discuss the issue in confidence. You will not automatically be excluded from the course but you will need to discuss this with the appropriate person.
Contact: Julia Crawford (Admissions Tutor)
The CRB form will be sent to you shortly before you arrive at Keele to begin your course. You cannot obtain the application form directly from the Criminal Records Bureau so if you lose your form you will have to request a new one. Remember to give us your full name and address so we can send the form to you without delay.
You will recieve details on when and how to submit your CRB form and supporting evidence. You will also need to bring a cheque (made payable to Keele University) or cash to the value of £44 to pay for the CRB check.
Unfortunately we are not able to accept previous CRB disclosures, even if they has been completed recently.
If you need any further information you may find the Home Office website useful.
