Steve Gullick, talked about the health and safety aspect of being a governor. He also looked at diference between strategic and tactical planning. Strategic being the governors (more long term) and tactical being the school (more short term).' As a governor, you are obviously very concerned that health and safety matters are dealt with well at your school'. We were given a scenario which is as followed: the headteacher tells you that there is no structure to the way teachers prepare for overnight trips and visits for pupils. It is the governing bodys job to overcome this and solve it. To deal with this situation the governing body sets up a working party of 3 governors and 2 teachers to produce a checklist for teachers to go through before they take an overnight trip. Some of the things on the list include:
Meeting with parents before trip
Food & drink, spare clothes, money etc
List of pupils and staff, itinerary, risk assesment etc
First aid kits and a first aider
Contact details and medical details, medication etc
