Risk assessment
Risk assessments will be carried out by staff and overseen by Anne-Marie Barton. Risk assessments will be regulalrly re-assessed based on any change of the pupil's needs, or discussed risks with parent/carers.

Training
Staff that are self-employed are responsible for their own training (CPD) and must complete any in-house training. Staff must complete safeguarding training every academic year. As the owner, I (AMB) will ensure that I complete relevant training to meet the needs of the child/young person or adult. 

Consultation Evacuation
We will discuss and review any health and safety matters, and include parents/carers (pupil if appropriate). Risk assessments will be shared with parents/carers. 

Evacuation
As tutoring takes part in the pupil's home, parents/carers are responsible for their child's safety and ensuring the safety of the environment. However, AMC Educational Support will notify and discuss any risks or safety precautions that are identified.
