Plan a school trip

Risk assessment, consent, staff ratios and money collected, approved before anyone books.

  1. Get the trip approved by the head (Headteacher signs off)
  2. Write the risk assessment
  3. Check staff ratios and first aid cover
  4. Book transport and the venue
  5. Send letters and collect consent and medical forms
  6. Collect payments and voluntary contributions
  7. Get medicines and care plans for pupils who need them. Most people forget this: Inhalers and EpiPens left at school are the most common trip problem
  8. Approve the trip on the local authority system (Educational visits coordinator signs off)
  9. Take the register at every move
