WHERE THE EXPOSURE LIES
Could you answer these questions with confidence?
An assessment filed away, unresolved defects or an evacuation plan that overlooks someone’s needs can leave a serious gap between paperwork and protection.
- Is the fire risk assessment current and suitable for the premises?
- Have significant findings been assigned and addressed?
- Are fire doors, detection and other precautions maintained?
- Can staff carry out the evacuation arrangements, including assistance where needed?

WHAT THIS GIVES YOUR LEADERSHIPKnow where you stand.
Know where you stand.
Know what needs to happen next.
A clear view of the gaps, practical recommendations and an agreed route to improvement. You can demonstrate the steps taken to understand risk, make informed decisions and follow through.
The applicable fire safety legislation depends on the location and use of the premises. In England and Wales, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is the principal framework for most school premises. Scotland and Northern Ireland have different legislation.
