Who is responsible for the safety of pupils on a school trip?
The management of health and safety on educational visits is part of a school’s overall policy on health and safety. The Department for Children, Schools and Families publishes a good practice guide and the Local Authority issues guidance to schools. The actual number of adults to young people will be arrived at by careful consideration of the programme and proposed activities.
