SD has now been sent off to the court and has been accepted. I have now sent Northern DRPU a version of my events plus an apology. Anything else I should do in the meantime?

Sorry, can't answer that question but hopefully others can.Have paid settlement, hopefully everything is ok now.
Also wanted to ask, from a DBS point of view, will the conviction be dropped and hence not show up on DBS check, since the matter's been settled?
You have paid a settlement to prevent the matter going to court. If it doesn't go to court there cannot be a conviction, and without a conviction there is nothing that can show up on a DBS check.Also wanted to ask, from a DBS point of view, will the conviction be dropped and hence not show up on DBS check, since the matter's been settled?
However it has already been to court and a conviction has occurred. However I'd expect the conviction to be squashed.You have paid a settlement to prevent the matter going to court.

The SD resets the clock so the conviction is voided, quashed or whatever. Northern have settled and therefore cannot reopen the case.However it has already been to court and a conviction has occurred. However I'd expect the conviction to be squashed.

As others have said, quite correctly, it should drop off your DBS check. However.... the court system and supporting services have been slashed to the bone and beyond and not all links checks and balances work as they should. You may want to check with the DBS after 2-3 months that the matter has come off your record. If not, it's a matter that you'll need to take through their corrections process - I have no idea what that is though. I'm sure if you come back to this thread should the worst happen, you will get some good advice.
