Newent Community School - Case Study
As expected, there is a strong focus at Newent School on establishing the right climate for learning and this applies to the school staff as much as it does the students, clearly demonstrated by the importance the school places on commitment to health and safety training.
Ann Price, School Business Manager, shares “We recognise that we don’t have the skills in-house to provide relevant health and safety training to all our staff and that we need support in this area.
We also recognise, however, that it’s important that whoever supports us in this area is a well-established local company with a great track record of providing accredited training and one who can work closely with us as a school community to ensure we constantly provide a safe and healthy environment for staff, students and visitors. And we have found all that and more in Envesca.”
The staff regularly undergo training to ensure that the school meets all their statutory obligations. This includes food safety and allergen awareness training and general health and safety training for the site team, including risk assessment, manual handling and asbestos awareness.
In addition, as Safeguard Members, Newent Community School also benefits from access to professional and up-to-date health and safety advice.
Safeguard Membership has proved an invaluable support for the school’s senior leaders.
What Newent Community School have to say about us...
"Not only do we have peace of mind knowing that we are up to date with ever-changing laws and we are doing everything to meet our legal obligations, but we also have access to expert advice as and when we need it."

With safety at the heart of everything they do. MP Filtri knew we were the natural choice to provide their training, support, onsite visits and audits. As one of our long standing Safeguard Member’s we also help them to continually strive to improve their health and safety standards.
Given the responsibility to train the security team in her new role, Claire lacked confidence in delivery and course planning. With our guidance she achieved the Highfield Level 3 Delivering Training qualification giving her the tools to create, implement and deliver numerous training packages.
Organising their health and safety eLearning courses with us enabled Equity to bring staff up to speed with all their training requirements across all five sites throughout Europe. This training has fostered a culture that is positive, professional and knowledgeable.
