 \n1 INTRODUCTION  \nThe school’s mission statement lies at the heart of how we respond to critical incidents which affect the life of the school.  \nOur Lady’s School Mission Statement  \nOur Lady’s School is a community that embraces Christian values. The education it provides is rooted in a deep sense of faith.  \nWe aim to create a positive inclusive environment which enables everyone to reach their full potential. We promote mutual respect within the school community and strive to provide a happy and secure atmosphere which fosters a love of learning.  \nWe encourage the development of the whole person, by fostering the personal, spiritual and moral development of every student. The realisation of individual talents and academic excellence is paramount.  \nWe aim to create a friendly, healthy, safe and caring environment which a firms our pride in the school.  \nWe promote the development of the necessary skills so that students may become responsible members of society. It is our wish to see every student leave Our Lady’s School with moral integrity and a heightened sense of social conscience.  \n1.1 The Critical Incident Management Policy (CIMP)  \nThe OLS critical incident policy is to respond to a critical incident quickly and effectively, minimise the potential negative effects of the incident, care for those affected and effect a return to normal school life as soon as possible. The policy provides a framework within which a critical incident plan is developed for each critical incident as it arises.  \n1.1.1 The aim of the critical incident management policy (CIMP)  \nThe aim of the CIMP is to help school management and staff to react quickly ","cbCaibDzGub3JMQw","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibDzGub3JMQw","pdf",341758,29,"English","# Introduction\n## The Critical Incident Management Policy (CIMP)\n## The aim of the critical incident management policy (CIMP)\n## The critical incident plan\n## Contents of This Document\n## Development and Maintenance of the CIMP\n# Definition of a Critical Incident\n# Foundation: The Creation of a Coping, Supportive and Caring Ethos in the School\n## Physical Safety\n## Psychological Safety\n# Critical Incident Management Team (CIMT) Members\n## Critical Incident Folder\n# Managing the Critical Incident\n## Forming the Critical Incident Management Team and creating the initial action plan\n## Implementing the CI Action Plan – short and medium term actions\n## Conclusion of the critical incident\n# Post Incident Review\n# Consultation and Communication Regarding the Plan\n# Appendices","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Critical Incident Management Policy (CIMP)?\",\"answer\":\"The CIMP helps school management and staff react quickly and effectively, maintain order, ensure appropriate support for students and staff, and develop an incident-specific critical incident management plan.\"},{\"question\":\"How is a critical incident managed according to this policy?\",\"answer\":\"A Critical Incident Management Team is formed to create an initial action plan, implement short- and medium-term actions, and conclude the critical incident with a return to normality as soon as possible.\"},{\"question\":\"What guidance does the policy provide after an incident?\",\"answer\":\"It includes a post-incident review and consultation and communication principles, supported by appendices containing procedures, contact information, and checklists for ongoing readiness.\"}]","Critical Incident & Covid-19 Policy - Board of Management Ratified 27 September 2021 | PDF",1789216042,10]
