ACTION PLAN
What further control
measures are required when
and by whom

Students leave the area

after walking out of the
door.
The area is cleared when
students are in lessons.

Contact main entrance

staff to notify them of the
photos being taken with
the area needed to be
clear and to warn them of
any injuries that may
occur.

Paths are in places that

are more even to walk on.
Distinctive areas to walk
on.

Only use the areas that

are flat and evenly laid
to walk on and to take
your photos on. If it has
rained then walked
carefully and do not run
as it may be slippy and
cause more accidents.

2) Uneven ground to fall

on.
