A DBS check can show different information depending on the level:
Basic DBS Check
Shows unspent convictions and unspent conditional cautions
Standard DBS Check
Shows spent and unspent convictions, cautions, reprimands and warnings recorded on the Police National Computer
Some information may be removed under filtering rules
Enhanced DBS Check
Shows everything a Standard check shows
May include other relevant information held by local police, if they judge it relevant and proportionate to the role
Enhanced DBS Check with Barred List(s)
Includes all Enhanced information
Also checks one or both barred lists (children and/or adults)
Shows whether the person is legally barred from working with those groups
Employers must not knowingly employ someone in a regulated role with children or vulnerable adults if a barred list check shows they are barred.
