FREE HEALTH AND SAFETY INFORMATION FOR SCHOOLS
"European Education Consultants" have reached an agreement with the Safety Advisers in the Occupational Safety Unit at Bradford Council, to offer all Bradford schools free membership of their health and safety web club. Joining this club will enable schools to access a wealth of health and safety advice and support, free of charge for a year.
The NUT Health & Safety Advisor, Miriam Murch, recommends the website as a valuable aid to schools in their quest to eliminate health & safety risks to pupils and teachers. "I think this facility will direct teachers to exactly the information they require, when they need it, and ensure that teachers' time is used effectively. Those teachers responsible for school trips, for instance, can download a ready-prepared risk assessment from a comprehensive list of destinations. The risks have already been considered by those with past experience of taking children to a specific place, so teachers with no direct experience can learn from this. The website is well worth a visit."
