At St Edmund’s we seek to maintain high health & safety standards in order to protect pupils, members of staff, visitors and others who may be affected by school activities.

In particular, it is the school’s policy to ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable:

• Provide and keep buildings and equipment and systems of work that are safe and suitable
• Promote the health and safety of our employees, students and visitors
• Provide and keep the workplace in a condition that is safe and with minimal risks to health
• Ensure significant workplace hazards have been assessed for risk and suitable controls and safe systems of work have been put in place
• Provide forums for active employee involvement in the continuous improvement of health and safety throughout the school’s activities
