Modern Slavery Policy

Modern slavery is a crime and a violation of fundamental human rights. This Modern Slavery Policy outlines how the company aims to prevent and detect modern slavery in any part of its business or supply chains. We have a zero-tolerance approach to modern slavery and are committed to acting ethically and with integrity and transparency in all business dealings and relationships and to implementing and enforcing effective systems and controls to ensure modern slavery is not taking place anywhere in our own business or in any of our supply chains.

This policy applies to all persons working for us or on our behalf in any capacity, including employees at all levels, directors, officers, agency workers, seconded workers, volunteers, interns, agents, contractors, external consultants, third-party representatives, and business partners.

1. London Teaching Pool Ltd is committed to eliminating modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and similar human rights abuses.

2. London Teaching Pool Ltd is committed to ensuring that its staff and any workers it supplies (directly or indirectly) are not subject to behaviour or threats that may amount to modern slavery, human trafficking, forced labour, and similar human rights abuses.

3. London Teaching Pool Ltd provides appropriate training and awareness information for all of its staff. In particular:
• All of our staff receive awareness-raising information around issues involving modern slavery and human trafficking, so that they can bring any concerns they have to the attention of management.

4. Any staff, workers or other parties are strongly encouraged to report any concerns or suspicions that they might have to Darryl Mydat, Chief Executive Officer. 

5. Reports surrounding these issues are taken extremely seriously by directors and senior leadership team, who are committed to ensuring that all investigations shall be prompt and effective. If our investigations reveal any issues, we are committed to taking appropriate action, including but not limited to:
• Working with the appropriate organisations to improve standards
• Removing that organisation from our preferred supplier list
• Passing details to appropriate law enforcement bodies

6. We regularly monitor our risks in this area through the use of relevant key performance indicators, including:
• The percentage of suppliers who sign up to an appropriate code / provide their own modern slavery statements
• The percentage of [workers and/or candidates] supplied from audited businesses / our preferred supplier list
• The effectiveness of enforcement against suppliers who breach policies
• The amount of time spent on audits, re-audits, spot checks, and related due diligence
• The level of modern slavery training and awareness amongst our staff

7. As part of our efforts in this area, we publish a modern slavery statement on an annual basis.
