Educational Visits

The Educational/Off Site Visits SLA to schools and services is in place to ensure the safety of all young people and to support staff through a comprehensive Educational Visits Policy. We offer help and training on all aspects of educational visit planning and delivery. This is facilitated through a dedicated educational visits website (EVOLVE), which supports the vetting process.

The SLA enables access to an experienced and qualified staff team, who deal with technical and policy queries related to all aspects and types of educational/ Off Site Visits. This process is supported by dedicated phone lines and email communication.

In addition, there is a comprehensive training programme including annual networks for Educational Visit Co-ordinators, a mandatory new to EVC role course, which is funded through the SLA and ongoing EVC Refresher and Update courses to connect colleagues and ensure they gain confidence leading and managing visits.
