Winter weather brings more than cold toes it brings risks to students, staff, and learning.
Here’s what to check:
- Gritting and pathways: Do you have a plan? Who spreads grit? Are key access routes prioritised?
- Heating and ventilation: Have systems been serviced? Are portable heaters risk assessed?
- Slip hazards: Wet floors, icy steps, damp carpets—do staff know what to report and when?
- Lighting checks: With darker mornings, external lighting matters more than ever.
Winter prep doesn’t need to be a big project. But it does need to be done.
We help schools get ahead of seasonal risk so they can stay open, safe, and ready for anything.
