Frequently asked
questions about Health & Safety Service
The employer has overall responsibility for health and safety. Depending on the type of school, this may sit with the local authority, governing or academy trust, with day-to-day responsibilities delegated to school leaders and competent staff.
The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) is the main enforcing authority for most health and safety matters in schools. Other authorities may have enforcement responsibilities depending on the nature of the risk or incident.
Schools should monitor health and safety through regular inspections, risk assessments, audits, incident reporting, training and reviews of policies and procedures. Monitoring should help identify emerging risks and ensure appropriate action is taken.
You don't need to have everything prepared before your audit. Your consultant will provide guidance on the key information and documents to have available, then work with you to identify gaps, agree priorities and determine what needs to happen next.
Your consultant will provide a detailed report and clear action plan highlighting findings and priorities. Through ongoing support, you'll be able to discuss actions, seek advice and track progress rather than being left with a report to manage alone. .
Your reports and action plans are available through JEDU, our online compliance platform. You can track actions, assign responsibilities and upload evidence of completion. MATs can also access oversight across their schools through the JEDU MAT dashboard.
