The Thames Valley District School Board strongly supports the use of volunteers.

Innerkip Central School is most appreciative of volunteers who commit their time to assist with numerous activities in our school, classrooms, and/or as part of school trips.

Vulnerable Sector Screening/Police Check

All volunteers must have an original Vulnerable Sector Screening / Police Check on file at the school.

To obtain a police check, an Innerkip application form, signed by the principal, needs to be picked up at the school office and taken to the Drumbo or Hickson Township Office or to the OPP Detachment Office in Ingersoll, along with two pieces of identification, with at least one being a photo ID. (Please see below for acceptable forms of photo identification).  It takes approximately two weeks to be processed before it is ready to be picked up and brought to the school.  In busier times, it may take longer to process.

Acceptable Forms of Photo Identification for OPP:

Driver's Licence

BYID (issued by the LCBO)

Military Employment Card

Canadian Citizenship Card

Indian Status Card

Passport

Permanent Resident Card

PAL - Possession & Acquisition Licence

CNIB Card

Ontario Photo ID Card (issued by MTO)

NEXUS Card

FAST Pass

Acceptable Forms of Non-Photo Identification for OPP

Birth Certificate

Baptismal Certificate

Hunting Licence

Outdoors Card

Canadian Blood Donor Card

Immigration Papers

Student ID (only as secondary piece of ID)

Offence Declaration

Once a Vulnerable Sector Screening / Police Check is on file, an Offence Declaration has be filled out and submitted to the school office each year in order to volunteer at the school, in classrooms or on field trips.  If an Offence Declaration lapses, a new Vulnerable Sector Screening / Police Check is required.

The Offence Declaration Form is available through the school office.

Mandatory Volunteer Training

All volunteers must watch the Accessibility within Thames Valley training video before volunteering at one of our schools.
