This customisable document offers information on the hazards associated with chemicals commonly used in D&T departments, and can also be used as a stocklist.
CLEAPSS strongly recommends that any D&T teacher or technician with limited or no experience of  these chemicals should consult with their science colleagues.

This guide is designed to help schools manage the use of practical rooms for other activities, such as general teaching.

This is to be used from September 2020.

This resource is made up of three documents:

G79 helps D&T or Art and Design departments to ensure rooms comply with relevant regulations and guidance.

G79A are checklists for auditing rooms and equipment.

G79B illustrates the required space required around machines and furniture in practical spaces.

The removal of grease and dirt with soaps, detergent powders and liquids. Stain removal by treatment of the whole garment or just the stained area with solvents, bleaches and enzymes.
