Lift Policy

The lift will be made available for any person who has a disability which prevents them from using the stairs. This disability may be permanent or temporary e.g., broken limbs, medical conditions, etc.

A full assessment of the need will be conducted by a member of the pastoral staff. This assessment will ensure that all medical needs are properly met, agreements with parents/guardians are made (where applicable), and any necessary training is provided. Regular reviews will be conducted.

Workers, visitors and staff may use the lift when it is necessary to relocate equipment from one floor to another.

The school will ensure that the lift is properly maintained and that safety measures are put in place.

Any misuse of the lifts by the student may lead to the student being suspended from using this facility, depending upon the nature of the student’s disability.
