kiddywink Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 We have recently had an unpaid volunteer start helping at the pre-school on occasion when she is able and I wondered if she has to complete a PPP as she isn't a member of staff? We've never had anyone be kind enough to volunteer before, so a bit unsure! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diesel10 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 She would need to have all the necessary staffing checks. If she's not a parent, I would get her the complete health questionnaire, DBS etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsp Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I would do everything that I would do for a paid member of staff (except pay them), including obtaining references. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyMaz Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Well thank goodness it's not just me!! Nor me - I was hoping someone would come and enlighten me! I think lsp is right - just treat them like an employee: references, DBS, good induction, reading (and signing to say they've read) policies etc. How lovely to have a volunteer!

lsp Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Oops - just assumed it was a 'staff file / record / induction'?? Apologies if wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddywink Posted January 17, 2016 Author Share Posted January 17, 2016 Thanks all, we've got the DBS, induction etc, just occurred to me that we hadn't done a PPP when the census with staff details came through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynned55 Posted January 18, 2016 Share Posted January 18, 2016 So could you explain what a PPP is? I just assumed it was personal contact/medical details kept on staff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
