Specifically, the school trust was fined after it was discovered that their risk assessment for a student was incomplete and not being followed.
There was an incident and, a few days later, there was another incident. It happened because a student who is supposed to be supervised at all times was not being supervised and it resulted in his death.
I never understand why fining a school trust could be a useful thing to do, as they use their money to provide an essential service. Surely it would make more sense to sack the incompetent individuals concnered? If money is taken away from an essential service then the knock on effect is experienced by the servicer users in the end.
It’s tragic, and I’m sure there are cases of negligence in schools but I think until you’ve experienced working in one it is hard to truly comprehend how things can happen. This could be a case of negligence or for all we know there could have been a bigger safeguarding incident which took staff away, when staff are already at a minimum.
For example I work in a class with five sen children who are entitled to one to one and one is a two to one. But there are only two staff. So when he runs, hits, bites etc he takes all the staff leaving the others. Obviously the school would love more staff but the funding and rules come from higher up. The school has raised the issue about the two to one but the council say we have to accommodate him and his parents don’t want to move him. There are many loop holes that most people aren’t aware of.
If someone died, someone should be going to prison…
