The new definition of regulated activity (i.e. work that a barred person must not do) in relation to children comprises, in summary:
i. unsupervised activities: teach, train, instruct, care for or supervise children, or provide advice/ guidance on well-being, or drive a vehicle only for children;
ii. work for a limited range of establishments (‘specified places’), with opportunity for contact: e.g. schools, children’s homes, childcare premises. Not work by supervised volunteers;
Work under (i) or (ii) is regulated activity only if done regularly: "regularly" is defined in detail on the following pages under items (a) to (f).
HM Government is publishing statutory guidance on supervision of activity that would be regulated activity if unsupervised.
iii. relevant personal care, e.g. washing or dressing; or health care by or supervised by a professional;
iv. registered childminding; and foster-carers.
