Risk Assessment & Management Policy for Trips Away
Before any trip departs, there is a Risk Assessment and Management process to be completed, which is a Ministry of Education requirement and this process highlights the risks involved and looks at how to prevent/minimise the risks associated with the trip. The person leading the trip (i.e. coach, manager or teacher in charge) will be responsible for completing all the relevant ‘RAMs’ paperwork and submitting it to Sally Mullally prior to the trip departing. The manager or designated adult is responsible for managing player injury and welfare.
A Low Risk and High Risk Trip package has been created. Sally Mullally (Sports Director), Keri Barnett or Rob Doak (Outdoor Education Department) will be able to give you more guidance on the requirements and correct paperwork to submit for your trip.
