Health & Safety Guidance for Schools

The downloadable documents below provide guidance and advice on Health & Safety issues for schools. Note that these are listed in Code of Practice number order rather than alphabetical. At the bottom of the list is a compressed file containing all of the available Codes of Practice (in pdf format).

Errata: the contact details for the Health and Safety Section of the Education Department are not current; the telephone number should read 2930911 and not 2735821. The Section is now located in the Bannerdale Centre and not Leopold Street.
