by University of Bristol, School of Education

Overview

This extract covers behaviour policy, drugs in schools, health and safety, and school trips. The complete 'Handbook for Education Professionals: The Bristol Guide 2018/19' gives general advice on the law and professional responsibilities, duties and rights for all professionals working with children and young people in England. The complete guide is also available in print, for further information see: www.bristol.ac.uk/education/expertiseandresources/bristolguide. It is an essential resource for initial teacher training (ITT) students working towards their qualified teacher status (QTS). It also helps newly qualified teachers (NQTs) and more experienced teachers have an 'understanding of, and always act within, the statutory frameworks which set out their professional duties and responsibilities' Teachers' Standards. Higher Level Teaching Assistants (HLTAs) and Teaching Assistants (TAs) working towards HLTA status will find the guide invaluable in developing knowledge of how 'other frameworks that support the development and well-being of children and young people impact upon their practice' HTLA Professional Standards.
