Chaperone licences
Chaperones are people licensed through the Local Authority where they live, to accompany and look after children who take part in a licensed performance. School age children up to and including year 11 must be accompanied by a licensed chaperone if their parent cannot go with them.
Parents can supervise their own child. They cannot look after other children unless they are licensed. Relatives and childminders would also need a chaperone licence. This is because they are not legal guardians unless they have been appointed by a court.
To apply to be a chaperone, you must hold a current Hull City Council Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and be registered with the DBS Update Service. Once an application is received, we need 2 references. You must attend an informal interview.
