Delegated Services Risk Warning: Peaceful Protest

Hello all,

This morning the attached, untaxed vehicle was driven onto an agreement customer's site. The driver was not aggressive but did not wish to leave, until after a couple of hours and the vehicle had been checked out, it was pointed out it was untaxed!

There is potential for this individual to repeat his actions. There is the possibility for you to experience something similar yourselves on other issues, even if not open to vehicles.

The advice we have been able to quickly provide is as follows and flows from the Section 1 services of your customer agreement, namely the support on Warning and Banning we provide:

The site is not public and you can choose, ('get outa my pub') who is welcome or not. This is the 'landlord' right. In the event of non co-operation Section 547 of the Education Act 1996 makes it a criminal offence to commit nuisance or trespass on a school site. Therefore, a failure to leave falls into that category. Reasonable force can be used to eject an individual without police assistance, but subject to risk assessment. If that says a bit iffy, ring 999 and make clear what's happening there and then to try to have a priority response.

In the case of the vehicle, you'd be entitled, having carefully recorded its condition, to have it removed.

DS Risk Warning: Health - Coronavirus/Covid 19

Hello all, You may well have already heard or seen that as a result of the Government's meeting today on this issue they have moved to a different level of response to the virus and its progress namely DELAY. After reading the following and reflecting on it you may come to the conclusion a communication to all staff and another to parent/carers would be timely, as soon as possible, to try to stave off issues on site tomorrow morning. With immediate effect the advice is that anyone with a new persistent cough or high temperature should self-isolate for seven days. From Friday, school trips abroad will be banned. This should trigger the ability to claim from your insurers but there's no compensation for the disappointment and lost opportunity, of course. Older people and those with pre-existing health conditions are being told not to go on cruises. PM Boris Johnson said it was "the worst public health crisis for a generation". He said there was no...

Delegated Services Risk Warning: Weather; Snow and Ice

Hello all, On the basis of the current forecast projection, coming to a conclusion on business as usual on Friday is very difficult to call. You'll see from the risk matrix below and description that things are moving in the higher impact direction for snow on the way home and overnight on Thursday, with things easing in the early hours and into the morning. However, there's still the caveat that a lot of it could be rain! If snow, the description may mean that it will be possible to have motorways and the majority of principal gritted routes open and, therefore, public transport running for the journey to work. My call at the moment is that it looks like an early curtain open and radio on for Friday morning to see what we face. It could vary markedly across the staff team's travel to work area. Make sure your communication cascade to all method is ready, up to date and has capacity if many have to use it. It may be a 'we are open' on a rolling basis will ...

DS Risk Warning: Health - Cornavirus/Covid 19

Priority Wed, 26 Feb, 20 Hello all, Looking at how things are progressing and supporting you with your many enquiries can we suggest, if you haven't done so already, a communication to your community and staff? The content would be to reassure that you are following the national and local advice. You could then copy and paste the advice from yesterday that includes the list of Category 1 and Category 2 locations and the list of Italian lock down villages. If you can you can go on to say nobody has returned from lock down areas anywhere in the world. Some have returned from areas where the advice is clear on being vigilant in case symptoms appear. If that were to be the case they will then follow the self isolate advice, etc. it would be sensible to recognise that the situation is very dynamic and could already be changing as you send your communication. You will update them on your position if anything material changes, but they can also keep up to date ...
