Risk Assessments / Evolve Notification

It is the responsibility of individual schools to have appropriate risk assessments in place for all activities they attend. SGO’s and Active Schools will not send risk assessments direct to Schools. They should download sample risk assessments from Evolve for all Active Schools and SSP events and personalise them.

For large, centrally organised Active School events, risk assessments will be in the Active Schools tab of the resources section on Evolve. For School Games and SSP events risk assessments are in the PE tab.The ‘Events’ risk assessment can be adapted to cover the vast majority of sites used, and for all multi skills activities. Your school may also add activity specific risk assessments if they feel it necessary. (Sample activity risk assessments can also be downloaded from Evolve.) As always a Transport risk assessment will be required.
