Has anyone an experience of applying for the OU and having a unspent conviction for a SO?

It becomes spent in May 2023 so should I wait?

Thought I’d pop back and say after the application process with the OU and a risk assessment form my officer completed which I got to see and was very fair, it went to a panel and I was allowed to start my course but with restricted access which basically means that I don’t have access to the forums section of my module website and the OU email system nor can I attend live tutorials (but can access the recordings), everything else I can access.

Once end of May is here when everything ends in terms of SHPO etc. I have been told to inform the relevant team at the OU and it will go back to the panel and I should get full access.

It’s going really well, I am enjoying my course, tutor knows my circumstances and is great and submitted my first assignment so awaiting the results and feedback.
