Fire Evacuation

Should the fire alarm go off, we should all exit calmly via the first fire exit door, and meet together on the grassy area next to the car park.

It is exceptionally important that we treat everyone fairly, with dignity and respect each other. We have an ED&I module that all students will complete with their guidance tutors.
