Appeal by male teaching assistant against Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) decision to place him on children's barred list following six findings of what the DBS described as "grooming type behaviour" in 3 different girls' schools over a period of 9 months. The Upper Tribunal found that the DBS's findings that 5 of the 6 allegations were made out did not involve any material mistake of fact. Overall, the fact that one of the allegations was not made out was not material to the decision to include the appellant on the children's barred list.
