Safety
Student safety is our primary concern and a major focus for teachers organizing activities. Teachers will accompany group activities in the required ratios, according to ESF Supervision and Activity Management policies. Visits will be made by teachers to students on work placements.
The following steps are taken for every activity:
・Procedures for COVID19 are established for each activity to ensure social distancing and other COVID protocols are followed.
-
・Documentation regarding the registration and status of any outside provider is collected. References are sought and checked.
-
・For outside providers, the qualifications of personnel and the safety and risk mitigation procedures of the provider are checked.
-
・A complete risk assessment and safety audit carried out on all activities with information presented to the School, including covid-related health and safety measures.
- ・Insurance cover is taken out for all activities outside of school including additional insurance cover for high-risk activities. This allows access to the best emergency and medical assistance in the event of any incident.
-
-
・Activity leaders check first aid training status and if necessary re-train.
-
・Medical details for all students are examined, collated and followed up as necessary. *It is important that parents ensure the school is informed of the up-to-date medical information for their child.
-
・Detailed risk-mitigation documents covering every aspect of the activity are created, discussed and signed off by Mr Rhys Thomas, VP and DP Coordinator.
-
・Itineraries, contact details, student and family contact details are collated and copies kept at school.
-
・First aid kits are ordered, customised and collected.
-
-
・Meteorological and geographical details for each destination are checked carefully prior to departure, and an up-to-date list of nearest medical providers, doctors and hospitals for each location.
