Important Notice:

Sexual Conviction Record Check (SCRC) scheme

The Administration has accepted the recommendation of the Law Reform Commission to establish the SCRC scheme and the Hong Kong Police Force has launched the scheme since 1 December 2011.  The scheme is only applicable to prospective employees seeking child-related work or work relating to mentally incapacitated persons in organizations or enterprises (including supply teaching posts in schools).  Given the importance of protecting our students, schools/employers are strongly advised to adopt the scheme and request prospective supply teachers to undergo SCRC at the advanced stage of the employment process.  Applications for SCRC should be submitted by the prospective employees voluntariily.  Details of the SCRC scheme are available at the Hong Kong Police Force homepage (https://www.police.gov.hk/scrc).
