Health & Safety

Kate McWilliam School of Movement

We’re committed to creating a safe and welcoming environment for all students, staff, and families. Here’s how we work to keep everyone safe during classes, workshops, and events:

What We Do

• A trained first aider is present at every session

• All venues have a fire evacuation plan, and staff are familiar with emergency procedures

• Equipment (like mats and circus equipment) is regularly checked and always used under supervision

• Risk assessments are carried out for every venue and activity

• Students are taught how to use equipment safely and are expected to follow instructions

• Accidents are recorded and reported to parents or carers as appropriate

• We follow current public health guidance around illness and infection control

• Students who are unwell or recovering from injury should stay home until they’re ready to take part safely

Help Us Keep Classes Safe

• Let us know about any medical needs or injuries before class

• Make sure students wear appropriate clothing and tie back long hair

• Encourage your child to follow instructions and show kindness and respect to others
