Transport & Escorted Trips Policy

This Transport and Escorted Trips Policy provides a safety-focused framework for planning outings, managing risks, and transporting children safely. It outlines procedures for risk assessments, journey planning, supervision levels, and vehicle safety to ensure children’s wellbeing at all times. Staff responsibilities, consent requirements, and emergency procedures are clearly defined to promote accountability and preparedness. The policy also covers safe use of public and private transport, conduct during trips, and recording of incidents. By following this policy, the organisation ensures outings are well planned, risks are minimised, and children can participate in activities safely, confidently, and enjoyably.
