Each school has its own procedures which reflect the needs of the students. The
orientation checklists may help you in your preparation and consideration of your school's procedures.
Schools also comply with the departmental
Policy and Procedure Register.

Schools prepare and practise emergency plans to ensure the safety of students, staff and others on site.
In particular, you will be given the school emergency procedures for:
- emergency evacuation
