Overview

The department’s Risk Management Process for Schools guides decision-making to help schools effectively manage risk and prioritise school resources in the context of the school’s operating environment.

Use the Risk Management Process for Schools to identify, assess and review risk associated with:

  • activities where a mandatory risk assessment is required under legislation (emergency management, child safety, occupational health and safety, information security, excursions including overseas travel, bus safety)
  • developing the Annual Implementation Plan (AIP)
  • developing the School Strategic Plan (SSP)
  • school operations (such as lesson planning)
  • community events or activities that require approval by the school council, such as a school fete.
