Evacuation: read the class’s agreed pupil arrangements

Student Radar helps teaching staff read evacuation arrangements available for their class, including named helpers and plan status, before the information is needed.

The brief comes from agreed PEEPs and supports the school’s emergency procedures. It does not confirm live presence, helper availability, completed evacuation or complete coverage of inaccessible plans.

Fictional example locations and people. Use the school’s own agreed plan and procedures.

Before the next lesson

Know the agreed plan for the class in front of you.

Read a class’s agreed evacuation briefs: how pupils are alerted, the recorded route and refuge, named help, equipment and assembly arrangements.

  1. 01

    Check the class

    Choose the intended tutor or teaching class and read the visible-plan and coverage messages.

  2. 02

    Read the practical brief

    Work through the pupil’s alert, route, refuge, helpers, equipment and assembly arrangements, including backup and cover lines.

  3. 03

    Raise the source gap

    Check overdue reviews or unrecorded fields with the responsible lead. Plan agreement and changes remain in the formal PEEP workflow.

Agreed instructions

Keep the practical arrangements together

Six sections bring the agreed pupil instructions into the class context. A separate backup remains visible alongside assigned helpers; training confirmation stays attached to the named assignment.

Review status

Keep an overdue review visible

An overdue plan is labelled as still the plan in use. Staff can follow the current agreed arrangements and raise the review without treating an overdue date as cancellation.

No equipment is recorded in this example; an empty field is not a new instruction.

Phone reading

Keep training and backup details beside the person

Read the entire brief on a phone, including the assigned helper’s training state, a distinct backup and any cover arrangement.

A named helper is not confirmation that the person is present now.

Coverage matters

See what the class brief cannot establish

A partial-coverage notice identifies unavailable plans for pupils you can see. The visible count must not imply complete plan coverage.

One of three pupils’ plans is unavailable to this viewer in this example.

No visible plan

Keep an empty result in context

No agreed plan you can see is different from no need, no draft or no restricted plan. Ask the responsible lead about missing arrangements.

The SENCo or medical lead holds plans still being written.

Access boundaries

Respect a current refusal

Authoritative access refusals hide named pupil instructions. A permitted link or an earlier read does not grant continuing access.

Connection refresh warnings and authoritative access refusals have different meanings.

Keep the next decision grounded in the record

The brief comes from agreed PEEPs and supports the school’s emergency procedures. It does not confirm live presence, helper availability, completed evacuation or complete coverage of inaccessible plans.

Read agreed pupil arrangements in the intended class

Keep helper training, backup and overdue reviews visible

Recognise missing coverage and return changes to the formal PEEP

Questions about Evacuation

What can staff check in an evacuation brief?

Staff can check the class, pupil brief, named helpers and review status, and follow the original plan to keep its arrangements current.

What if the class is being taught in another room?

Use the guide’s room-context checks and the original agreed plan. Read partial coverage and overdue-review notices rather than assuming a class brief covers every arrangement.

The value of a connected school

Meet the class with the context already in reach.

The register, seating plan and markbook sit around the same pupils and the support their teachers need to understand.
