Risk assessments are required for any hazardous activity. In this unit pupils:
- use hot water and electrical heaters
- observe heated metals, liquids and air
- use flammable and oxidising materials
Model risk assessments used by most employers for normal science activities can be found in the publications listed in the Teacher's guide. Teachers need to follow these as indicated in the guidance notes for the activities, and consider what modifications are needed for individual classroom situations.
