Risk Assessments

Risk Assessments are separated into four distinct areas:

  1. Campus - meaning the university campus where the ANGLO centre is based
  2. Activities - meaning social activities that form the activity or social programme (e.g. sports, discos, karaoke)
  3. Excursions - meaning trips the students take
  4. Academic - meaning workshops, classes and exams

Risk Assessments for each area have two parts, part A and part B

Part A:

  • is completed in a general way before the staff arrive at centre
  • is updated to be specific to each centre by the SWO/WTS/AM/PM on arrival at centre, before students arrive
  • is reviewed by Head Office staff in conjunction with the SWO/WTS/AM/PM before students arrive
  • is communicated to centre staff

Part B:

  • is completed by the SWO/WTS/AM/PM on a regular basis i.e. prior to each session to identify new and current risks relevant to each session
  • is communicated to the relevant staff at the meeting point/team meeting and via WhatsApp
  • is then communicated to GLs and students by the relevant staff
Risk Assessment Documents

ANGLO's Risk Assessment documents are Google Sheets, accessible by all managers at each centre. Each centre has 5 documents:

  1. Campus Part A
  2. Activities Part A
  3. Excursions Part A
  4. Academic Part A
    and finally
  5. Risk Log - this is the Part B document that is regularly updated and is considered a 'live' log of all risks in all areas of the centre's operations

The Risk Log document feeds all recorded risks back to the relevant Part A document to maintain clean records e.g. a risk in the Risk Log categorised as 'Academic', can be viewed in the Academic Part A document.
This approach means that there is only one document requiring regular updates.
