The Health and Safety Team
The Health and Safety Team is small, dedicated and supportive advisory team of NEBOSH Diploma qualified health and safety professional providing a strategic lead on H&S policy, topic specific arrangements and training.

No two days are ever the same and you could find yourself carrying out a range of tasks including; auditing, premise inspections, responding to emergencies and investigating accidents, designing and delivering training or providing interpretation of H&S legislation and support to manager, headteachers or whole teams.
Whilst our Advisers have clearly defined areas of H&S specialisms and are provide with opportunities to expand their knowledge through continuing professional development (CPD), they work within a supportive team where the sharing of expertise is essential.
