Thanks to the efforts of school staff and governors, schools normally remain a safe haven for children; however, schools could become involved in an emergency at any time.\nThe Department for Education (DfE) recommend that schools have emergency plans in place. Planning and preparing for emergencies can save lives. These actions can also help prevent an incident from worsening and enhance the school’s standing as a safe place to learn and work, giving confidence to staff, parents and pupils.\nThis template has been produced by North Somerset Council’s (NSC’s) Emergency Management Unit (EMU) to assist schools in developing their Emergency Procedures.\nThis template is flexible and is not intended to replace any emergency procedures or plans schools may have already produced. However, it may be a useful check that existing plans cover all relevant aspects of responding to an emergency.\nLegal Disclaimer\nThis plan is the sole responsibility of the school. North Somerset Council cannot accept responsibility for any omission or error contained in any such plan, or for loss, damage, or inconvenience, which may result from the plan’s implementation.\nPlan Ownership\nSchool Emergency Plans should be produced and maintained by each School Management Team and communicated to all relevant staff. Procedures should be regularly tested to ensure their fitness for purpose; a training and exercise record template can be found at the end of this plan. Security of the contents of this plan remains with the school.\nEMERGENCY MANAGEMENT UNIT\nNORTH SOMERSET COUNCIL\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \"mailto:emu@n-somerset.gov.uk\" \u0014emu@n-somerset.gov.uk\u0015\n22nd Jan 2020\n\u0013 TOC \\f \\h \\z \u0014\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579371\" \u0014SCHOOL EMERGENCY PLAN\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579371 \\h \u00141\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579372\" \u0014AIM & OBJECTIVES\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579372 \\h \u00141\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579373\" \u0014TYPES OF EMERGENCY\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579373 \\h \u00141\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579374\" \u0014SCHOOL PROFILE\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579374 \\h \u00143\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579375\" \u0014REST CENTRE/ COMMUNITY EMEREGENCY SHELTER\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579375 \\h \u00144\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579376\" \u0014LOCAL HAZARDS/ RISKS TO SCHOOL\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579376 \\h \u00145\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579377\" \u0014PLAN ACTIVATION\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579377 \\h \u00146\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579378\" \u0014ROLES & RESPONSIBILITIES\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579378 \\h \u00147\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579379\" \u0014SCHOOL EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM (SERT)\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579379 \\h \u00147\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579380\" \u0014HEADTEACHER/ NOMINATED PERSON IN CHARGE\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579380 \\h \u00148\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579381\" \u0014DEPUTY HEADTEACHER\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579381 \\h \u001410\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579382\" \u0014OFFICE MANAGER/ SCHOOL SECRETARY\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579382 \\h \u001411\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579383\" \u0014CARETAKER/ PREMISES MANAGER\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579383 \\h \u001413\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579384\" \u0014SCHOOL TRIP LEADER\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579384 \\h \u001414\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579385\" \u0014CHAIR OF GOVERNORS\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579385 \\h \u001416\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579386\" \u0014RESOURCES – GRAB BAGS\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579386 \\h \u001417\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579387\" \u0014SCHOOL’S EMERGENCY CONTROL CENTRE\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579387 \\h \u001417\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579388\" \u0014CONTACT DETAILS\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579388 \\h \u001418\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579389\" \u0014SCHOOL UTILITIES & OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579389 \\h \u001418\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579390\" \u0014TEACHING & SUPPORT STAFF CONTACT DETAILS\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579390 \\h \u001419\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579391\" \u0014OTHER USEFUL CONTACT NUMBERS\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579391 \\h \u001420\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579392\" \u0014SHELTER, EVACUATION AND PERSONAL EMERGENCY PLANS (PEP’s)\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579392 \\h \u001421\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579393\" \u0014SPECIAL MEASURES\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579393 \\h \u001421\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579394\" \u0014INTRUDER\t\u0013 PAGEREF _Toc30579394 \\h \u001421\u0015\u0015\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \\l \"_Toc30579395\" \u0014ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD\t\u0013 PAGE","cbCaie2mx49R0GT9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaie2mx49R0GT9","docx",829366,46,"English","# Preface\n## Legal Disclaimer\n## Plan Ownership\n## Emergency Management Unit - North Somerset Council","[{\"question\":\"Why do schools need emergency plans?\",\"answer\":\"Emergency planning helps save lives, prevents incidents from worsening, and supports confidence that schools remain safe places to learn and work.\"},{\"question\":\"Who produced this emergency plan template?\",\"answer\":\"The template was produced by North Somerset Council’s Emergency Management Unit (EMU) to assist schools in developing their Emergency Procedures.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the responsibility of North Somerset Council for the plan?\",\"answer\":\"The plan is the sole responsibility of the school.
