What are the followed procedures to ensure the provision of health and safety services in the school? How is their implementation monitored? How effective are they in maintaining health and safety within the school? How aware are stakeholders of these procedures?
What is the role of the school nurse and who is acting on her behalf in her absence? What services does it provide in the school?
What training workshops are provided to educate and train the school community on health and safety procedures?
How is follow up on the safety food made in the school canteen? (If a school canteen is available).

What the evidence shows
What does the evidence tell us? Record each finding clearly, connect it to supporting evidence, then submit it for review.
Loading governed reflection and findings…
This layer interprets evidence; it never changes official QNSA text.
03
School judgement
Compare the reviewed findings with the QNSA rubric. A responsible person chooses the judgement and explains why; the system does not choose it automatically.
Loading professional judgement…
Judgement is human-owned and grounded in governed findings plus the official QNSA rubric.
