SA - Catholic Schools Clearance


All staff working at a Catholic School in South Australia will need to obtain a Catholic Schools Clearance prior to their first session. Please complete the following steps:


1. Apply directly to the Catholic Archdiocese of Adelaide by emailing receptionsava@adelaide.catholic.org.au  or you can telephone them on 08 8210 8150. You must forward your confirmation email of your WWCC (which comes through from DHS screening unit) to this email address.


  1. In the email, include the following details:

Your full name:

Your date of birth:

Your residential address:

Your mobile number:

Your role:  Please put "Contractor"

The name of the school you have been assigned to:


3. The process takes a number of weeks so it is important to get it started as quickly as possible as you won't be able to work at a Catholic School without this approval. Once it has been processed, you will receive a card back in the post. Please take a photo of this card and either upload it to the staff portal
