School Trip Risk Assessment Generator

9 September 2024
Planning a school trip can be exciting and rewarding, but at TripPA we understand how overwhelming it can feel when you’re juggling all the paperwork, emails, and risk assessments. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce our brand-new Risk Assessment Generator for Microsoft Excel, designed specifically for school trip planning. It makes the entire process straightforward and stress-free, ensuring that your educational visits run smoothly.

Our Risk Assessment Generator starts with a quick questionnaire on the cover sheet and auto-fills with common risks tailored to a wide variety of school trip activities. Whether you’re planning a day trip, a field trip, or an international residential, the tool can be easily customised by adjusting the risks and control measures to fit your unique trip needs.

What’s more, this tool doubles as a handy school trip to-do list! Copy and paste important information directly into emails, presentations, or letters for parents, staff, and students, helping streamline communication during your school trip preparations.
