SafetyMARK Accreditation

SafetyMARK is a safety certification and support scheme created specifically for the education sector. It aims to recognise and reward those schools that have gone the extra mile to create a safe environment for staff, pupils, visitors and contractors. No matter what level of maturity your safety management systems are currently at, the on-site audit will generate a practical improvement plan and a benchmark against which to measure future successes.

SafetyMARK is as much about the process of improvement and the provision of support as it is about the final goal of the award.
