Join us for Episode 3 of The Safer Schools Podcast where we discuss managing winter conditions, including key considerations for:

  • Lighting and visibility
  • Wet and decaying leaves
  • Blocked drains, gutters, downpipes, flat roofs etc.
  • Preventing slips at building entrances/exits and external access routes
  • Flooding
  • Ice, frost and snow, including how to compile a gritting plan
  • Outdoor activities
  • School vehicles
  • Preventative maintenance checks for premises; and
  • Winter illnesses (e.g. flu, Norovirus etc.)

We also discuss key considerations for staff putting up Christmas decorations in your school.
