SEP has tried to ensure that the practical activities
are healthy and safe to use in schools and colleges, both
for technicians preparing materials and pupils and teachers
carrying them out. In consultation with the CLEAPSS® School
Science Service, SEP has attempted to identify any recognised
hazards and suggest appropriate control measures (safety
precautions) to reduce the risks from them. It is assumed
that practical work will be undertaken in suitable laboratories
or work areas and that good laboratory practices will
be observed. Teachers should consult their employer’s
risk assessments for each activity before use and consider
whether any modification is necessary for the particular
circumstances of their own schools, classes or rooms.
If necessary, CLEAPSS members can obtain further advice
by contacting the Helpline on 01895 251496 or
e-mail science@cleapss.org.uk.
