Course description

This session will be delivered by colleagues from the WES Health & Safety Service.

FOR ALL ACADEMIES & SCHOOLS WHERE THE SCHOOL IS THE EMPLOYER, i.e., academies, voluntary aided and foundation/trust schools.

 As employers, academy and school boards have a duty to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, the health, safety and welfare of their employees and others affected by their activities, e.g., pupils, visitors, contractors.

 The session will provide academy and school governors and trustees with an overview of their responsibilities under health and safety legislation, and to understand specific employer and employee responsibilities. The session will also include an overview of how the academy trust and school senior leadership teams should be managing and monitoring health and safety, and to ensure that any risks to health and safety are controlled.
