The ISA’s Decision-making process is the method used by the
ISA’s caseworkers and the ISA Board to decide whether it is
appropriate that an individual should be barred from working with
children or vulnerable adults. It includes the use of our
Structured Judgment Process which will aid our determination as to
whether an individual presents an unacceptable risk of harm to
children and/or vulnerable adults.
The ISA’s Decision Making Process was developed by the Board of
the ISA with specialist advice. The Board has the benefit of having
members with considerable experience and knowledge in the areas of
safeguarding children and vulnerable adults; risk assessment and
risk management; child protection; education and the assessment,
treatment and management of sex offenders.
The ISA’s Decision-Making Process Guidance is a living
document subject to constant review and updating (as one would
expect it to be) and that we reserve our right to change or update
it without notice or consultation. We will make future versions
available on our website at appropriate intervals.
