The cleaning firm that *employed Stanford said he passed compulsory police and employment checks before he began working for them last October. It is understood the police checks only look at a persons criminal record in Australia and not Holland, where Stanford lived until 13 months ago. The checks cleared him to work with children at Leeton High School.

A spokesman for the Office of the Childrens Guardian said: A NSW Working With Children Check is a prerequisite for anyone in child-related work in NSW. It involves a *national criminal history check and review of findings of workplace misconduct.
The result of a Working With Children Check is either a clearance to work with children for five years, or a bar against working with children. Cleared applicants are subject to continuous checking for relevant offences by NSW Police, and relevant new records may lead to a clearance being revoked.'
