 Guidelines
for Primary Schools
PRIMARY HEALTH AND SAFETY GUIDELINES
Teachers and pupils need to
be aware of how to reduce risks involved in activities in science. Teachers will
have different staff development needs which need to be identified and
addressed.
It is suggested that
primary schools use ‘Be Safe (Third edition) Health And Safety In Primary School
Science And Technology’ as their Health and Safety guidelines.
This can be used supported
by training from SSERC.
Individual local
authorities may have their own primary health and safety guidelines. Therefore
it is important to be familiar with these.
All activities must be risk
assessed, and these risk assessments can be carried out using the ‘Be Safe’
manual. |
