Health and Safety

The School takes all Health and Safety issues very seriously and there is an extensive Health and Safety Policy document. All staff carry out regular Risk Assessments of their classrooms and communal areas of the campus to provide the safest possible environment for the children’s work and play.

The Headmaster carries responsibility for the Health and Safety of pupils and staff, but this responsibility is entrusted to the Director of Operations on a day-to-day basis, who ensures that our facilities are properly maintained. If parents have any Health and Safety concerns, they should take these up with the Headmaster in the first instance.

Prior to any off-site visits, the staff involved will undertake a rigorous Risk Assessment of the activity and will submit this to the Educational Visits Coordinator for approval. Only then will parents receive information about the visit and be asked to provide their formal consent.

The Swimming Pool has its own staff, led by the Sports Facilities Manager, and all aspects of Health and Safety in the pool area are continually monitored.
