Health and Safety is of prime importance to the school and we will seek to conduct our business in such a way as to avoid harm to our employees and all others who may be affected directly or indirectly by our activities.
The aim of our school is to create a safe environment, for all users of the school, students, school staff, parents and the community.
This includes:
- The ability of each individual to protect him/her self
- Concern and consideration for the safety of others
- Knowledge of what to do in certain situations or seeking expert help where the necessary skills are not available.
- Alertness and control
- Cultivation of good habits
We believe that students learn best through practical experiences and active involvement in all areas of the curriculum. Students are taught to have care and consideration for themselves and others:
- In the classroom
- When using equipment e.g. scissors, tools, PE apparatus
- When moving around school
- When carrying out investigations e.g. a pond, pollution, soil studies
- When on educational visits
- Safe places to play (stranger danger etc)
- Healthy eating habits
- Wearing the right clothing for P.E
Educational visits are carefully planned in advance.
The delegated person for Health and Safety is Mr Irfan Ahmed.
