While I was looking through the Conversation last week, I picked up this article about legal risks and paperwork around school trips. I did also read the paper that was linked to in the article. This to me highlights a gap in knowledge and we need to think about how to bridge that gap. Using terms like burden and paperwork is never going to end well. We know schools look after our children day in and day out, so why the difficulty in outdoor education? Working in an environment where we take students out it's about the planning of a visit, what happens if the minibus breaks down, what's the plan if anyone is injured and what about environmental risks (weather, earthquake etc.). We tend to use forms in health and safety, but paperwork needs to guide you to think through the hazard and how you manage any risk. It should be a living document not stuffed in a filing cabinet but used during the trip. In New Zealand we have such fantastic opportunities for outdoor education it is also an opportunity to use risk management with our students and pupils. https://lnkd.in/gHEVyzTS

Schools across the country are welcoming students back after the summer break, so it’s essential to think beyond the obvious when it comes to maintaining a safe and secure environment.

How long before unions cite the Health and Safety at Work Act as they did over #RAAC and another threat to school closure? How many of us have seen rat infestations beneath temporary classrooms? Black mould on ceilings and around rooflights due to damp and an absence of any cross ventilation? How many toilets are subject to regular backing up with all the resultant revolting smells? The condition of the school estate worsens with every passing year. This year’s 10 year record low number of #conditionimprovementfund awarded projects is further evidence that the funding chasm is getting wider. #developingthetrust

Escalating Claims Highlight School Safety Concerns in #Scotland Recent data from the Educational Institute of Scotland (EIS) has highlighted a concern for the upcoming year: the safety of staff in Scottish schools. This information indicates a significant rise in personal injury claims as a result of assault on teachers. Key Impacts of Rising Injury Claims: ● Financial Strain: Increased claims lead to higher costs for schools, affecting budgets and resources. ● Staff Morale: Frequent incidents of assault contribute to a decline in staff morale and workplace satisfaction. ● Educational Quality: A compromised learning environment can affect the overall quality of education. ● Reputational Damage: Schools face potential loss of trust from parents and the community.
