New Training on Allergy Safety Policy for School Governors

Training now available to support governors in allergy safety management

Bradford Schools Online has announced the availability of a new training session focused on allergy safety policies for school governors. The training aims to provide guidance on the development and maintenance of allergy safety policies within educational settings.

Details of the training

The training covers the following key points:

• The importance of having a dedicated allergy safety policy in schools, colleges, and early years settings.
• Guidance on reviewing the allergy safety policy at least annually.
• The requirement for the allergy safety policy to be published and accessible.

This initiative is designed to help governors understand their role in ensuring that allergy safety measures are properly implemented and regularly updated to protect students and staff with allergies.

Context and significance

Allergy safety policies are a critical component of safeguarding in educational institutions. They help manage risks associated with allergies, including food allergies, and ensure that staff are aware of procedures to prevent allergic reactions and respond appropriately in emergencies.

By providing this training, Bradford Schools Online supports governors in fulfilling their responsibilities to oversee health and safety policies effectively, contributing to safer learning environments.
