Social Distancing/Health and Safety
Safety First
Needless to say, health and safety is at the forefront of all our minds just now. As well as all of our regular safeguarding procedures, we will be implementing a number of additional measures to ensure the safety of our team, school staff, and the young people we work with. These measures include:
-
Our team conduct regular lateral flow tests.
-
Our team will have no contact with pupils during our visit.
-
Our team will only have minimal contact with members of staff during the visit (whilst observing strict social distancing measures). To achieve this, all possible planning will be achieved through correspondence prior to visit.
-
Our team will wear face masks at all times whilst not performing.
-
Our team will observe strict protocols around hand washing and hand sanitation.
-
The performance space will be at a safe distance from the audience and will be clearly marked out by our team.
-
As an additional precaution, the equipment we bring into school will be sanitised daily.
The production can be delivered in any space that complies with social distancing including the outdoor classroom. See below.
Numbers
We understand that social distancing policies will vary between regional authorities (and indeed schools). We will work with you to ensure the sessions are tailored to your school to ensure the maximum number of pupils can benefit in an entirely safe way. To aid social distancing, the cost of multiple performances can be negotiated with our team. We will do our very best to try and meet your budget.
Flexibility
We understand the constraints placed upon schools at the moment and that these guidelines are continually evolving. Wherever possible, we will be entirely flexible and adapt to your needs. eg. Timings, Performance Space, Number of participants.
The Outdoor Classroom
The performance can be delivered in any outdoor space. If you are reliant on using an outdoor space in order to maintain social distancing, then we offer a bad weather guarantee, allowing you to reschedule your performance for a later date.
