How long until a gbh conviction is spent in the UK?
Its the length of sentence that defines when the conviction is spent not the crime. If the sentence was for two and a half years or more it is never spent and always has to be declared. If it was for more than six months but less than two and a half years it is spent after ten years - its different for young offenders - for full details have a look at the related link below. Good Luck
How many years must pass before a conviction can be listed as quashed for background checks such as CRB and Police Checks?
The length of time before a conviction can be spent or quashed for background checks varies depending on the offense and jurisdiction. In many cases, a spent conviction becomes "inactive" after a certain period of time and does not need to be disclosed on background checks. It's recommended to check the specific guidelines in your area for accurate information.
Will a spent gbh conviction effect my chances of working with young disabled adults?
I would expect that it would. As with so many things now while it may not disqualify you directly, why hire someone with a conviction when there are so many applicants without a conviction. Add to that the fact that this could be seen as a morals issue and your chances become less and less.

Will an employment background check show a careless driving conviction?
It depends on the level of background check, the offence and the disposal (sentence): Basic criminal record check: If the conviction is unspent, it will show up. Convictions can take up to 7 years to spent, it depends on the sentence. Convictions that result in a prison sentence of over 4 years will never be spent. Standard and enhanced DBS check:If the conviction was for causing death or grievous bodily harm by careless/aggravated driving, it will show up forever. If the conviction resulted in a custodial sentence, it will appear show up forever. If you have more than one conviction offence, they will all show forever. If non of the above apply, the conviction will stop showing after 11 years (or 5.5 years if you were under 18 when convicted). Enhanced DBS check: The police can include any information they hold on an individual as long as they believe it is relevant to a recruitment decision, so even if a conviction qualifies to come off a DBS check, the police can still choose to include it. There are various organisations such as NACRO and Unlock who will advise on when a conviction is spent, whether it should show and what you should declare when applying.

Can you become a silicitor with a criminal record in the UK?
No- it is impossible to enter the legal profession if you have any criminal record at all in the UK, even if the conviction is spent. It is also very difficult to enter medicine if you have a criminal conviction, though in the latter case it is not impossible if there were mitigating circumstances at the time the offence took place.
