Logic and conditions blueprint
Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 2 conditional rules ship with it.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Do you hold a current first aid certificate?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “First aid certificate expiry date”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- Features advanced show logic: if “Have you previously been the subject of a safeguarding concern?” is Yes, the form dynamically exposes “Please provide the details”. Otherwise that question never appears.
- All 2 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.
About this template
Hiring in childcare turns on two things a CV rarely answers clearly: whether someone can be cleared to work with children, and whether they can genuinely cover the hours you need. This application asks both directly, alongside qualifications, first aid currency, age-group experience and two referees — with a document upload for certificates.

Every question is editable — rename it, make it optional, or delete it entirely.
