From time to time CLEAPSS receives enquiries from schools about recommendations, to meet health and safety standards, made following commercial health and safety inspections of design and technology facilities and equipment.

This guide is intended to support schools in developing an environment that enables the teaching of D&T to be challenging and innovative whilst remaining safe for staff, students and others.
