Health and Safety – all children enjoy pond dipping but there are some serious important health and safety considerations when considering designing and developing ponds for use by schools including “slips and trips”. Please therefore carry out risk assessments in accordance with LEA guidelines for all activities associated with ponds. Good pond designs can reduce some of these risks however.
