Yup, they have it nailed on the head. Work with vulnerable adults or children generally requires an enhanced CRB. Doctor, nurse, social worker, teacher, healthcare assistant, youth worker, physiotherapist, etc. Also things like police officers and if you want to open up a charity and run it. It can also be required if you want to go into fostering.

Certain university and college courses like social work and that teaching PGCE thing and childcare, health/social care, etc require enhanced CRB too. Unfortunately enhanced CRB's are the ones that ask for the 'extra relevent info' where you're at the mercy of ACPO's judgment. For every other job, though, it's a normal CRB
(all convictions/cautions/warnings/repimands) which is for things like accountancy/fraud roles in banking which my older bro had to go through to get his job in a big bank, and a basic Disclosure Scotland certificate which shows your unspent convictions, or they don't bother checking at all.

If you wanna work/move to USA/Australia/New Zealand/Canada, then you need an ACRO certificate, which prints relevent PNC details on a certificate, which decides if said country lets you in or not. But sectioning is never put on the PNC. Just local records.
