Responsible Person Training Under Martyn’s Law for Schools and Colleges

Martyn’s Law places a legal responsibility on organisations responsible for publicly accessible premises to consider the threat of terrorism and take proportionate steps to protect people.

Whether you are the identified Responsible Person (Headteacher/ Principal) or  an individual (School Business Manager or Estates Lead) who has been given delegated responsibility, you must ensure appropriate procedures, training and preparedness measures are in place to help protect pupils, staff and visitors.

As educational leaders prepare for the requirements of Martyn’s Law, many are reviewing whether their existing plans, policies and training arrangements provide the assurance they need.

How AI Schools Can Help

AI Schools provides practical, education-focused training to help schools and colleges meet their responsibilities under Martyn’s Law.

Our Responsible Person Training service includes:

• Responsible Person briefings and awareness training

• Martyn’s Law readiness reviews and gap analysis

• Critical incident and lockdown plan reviews

• Staff training and terrorism awareness programmes

• Tabletop exercises and scenario-based testing

• Governance assurance and trustee briefings

• Independent policy review and assurance services

Independent Policy Review and Assurance

For schools and colleges seeking additional assurance, AI Schools can independently review critical incident, lockdown, evacuation and emergency response policies.

Our specialists provide expert feedback, practical recommendations and a comprehensive assurance report, helping leaders, governors and trustees demonstrate that their arrangements have been reviewed against current best practice and the expectations of Martyn’s Law.

This service gives schools confidence that their policies and procedures are robust, proportionate and fit for purpose, while identifying any areas requiring further development.

Supporting Safer Educational Environments

Our practical, education-focused approach helps schools and colleges move beyond compliance and build confidence in their ability to prevent, prepare for and respond to critical incidents.
