Guest Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Hi Just in the process of dragging our reception setting out of the dark ages (started new at teh school in September) I've made a bid dent in the day to day stuff but now nneed to get cracking on the evaluation of provision, policy and RISK ASSESSMENT of the place. After reading the EYFS guidelines i'm confussed do i really need to risk assess my provision even though we're part of a school if so what do i assess and what do i not. Having completed risk assessments for trips and week long camps the thought of trying to risk assess my classroom fills me with dred, where the hell do i start!!! If anyone has copies of their setting that i could tweek to match my provision i would be eternally grateful or better still can someone tell me i've got hold of the wrong end of the stick and i'm covered by the school RA. Thanks Drew PS: Anyone got a FS example policy too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julie 12 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 On the subject of risk assessment, does anyone have a risk assessment policy? I was told I needed one for my NDNA Quality Counts Inspection last week. Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I'm pretty sure ours is a paragraph within our Health and Safety policy, a bit about the fact that we do overall ones, daily ones in case of changes and general non-written ones throughout the day as we assess levels of risk. We say how often the big ones are done, and by whom and how often they are checked etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alison Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 yes ours is tagged into our health and safety policy too, not all policies need to be stand alone documents they can be a paragraph in an existing bigger policy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
