>From the government web site re: CRB Checks.

The type of check required will depend upon the nature of the position.
These are called Enhanced and Standard Disclosures, both require a fee but
are free of charge to volunteers.

Standard Disclosure.

This is primarily available to anyone involved in working with children or
vulnerable adults, as well as certain other occupations and entry into
professions as specified in the Exceptions Order to the Rehabilitation of
Offenders Act (ROA) 1974.  Standard Disclosures show current and spent
convictions, cautions, reprimands and warnings held on the Police National
Computer.  If the post involves working with children or vulnerable adults,
the following may also be searched:


Protection of Children Act (POCA) List 
Protection of Vulnerable Adults (POVA) List 
Information that is held under Section 142 of the Education Act 2002
(formerly known as List 99) 
 
Enhanced Disclosure.

This is the highest level of check available to anyone involved in regularly
caring for, training, supervising or being in sole charge of children or
vulnerable adults.  It is also available in certain licensing purposes and
judicial appointments.  Enhanced Disclosures contain the same information as
the Standard Disclosure but with the addition of any relevant and
proportionate information held by the local police forces.
