Welcome to the area dedicated to all those who have health and safety issues within schools or educational establishments.

10,000 heads, deputies and administrators have one common thread in the complex and continuing developments in education, 'managing change and health and safety' this is now a vital part of managing schools.

We have tried to represent issues, regulations and good practice in a way, which will be clear and easy to follow. We have also identified areas of general health and safety, which may be particularly relevant to those working in the education sector, information on health and safety and welfare issues relevant to health and safety managers, Heads and Governors.

Welcome to the area dedicated to issues that apply to them.  You will also find general health and safety guidance in the 'A-Z'.  This information is relevant to all industry groups regardless of activity.

Not only will you have employees to take care of but members of the public who frequent your premises making use of your services as well as contractors and visitors.

As well as the basic key regulations and Statutory requirements, we aim to provide content that is specific to educational activities. All areas however should first be identified and risk assessed and hazards identified.  Risk assessment is the first point of call for all good health and safety management.

You will also find useful documentation in our 'Download' area, for:

• risk assessment,
•  policy,
•  guidance and  checklists

All content can be downloaded completed and then uploaded into your 'Document  Manager'
