Simply navigate to the investigation and click on the second item in the folder titled 'Risk Assessment (open in RiskAssess)' and select 'Preview Smart Lesson'. Once the preview opens, click on the link provided on the slide to access the risk assessment template in RiskAssess.
This will open RiskAssess in a new tab. Next, you will be required to 'create a modifiable copy' of the risk assessment and complete the relevant details for your particular class.
Ensure that you read through the risk assessment carefully and that you are aware of all of the safety precautions that are necessary to follow when conducting this investigation. Only when you have read and understood the potential hazards identified, complete the ‘Certification by Teacher’ by selecting the inherent level of risk and any extra control measures that may not be identified and click ‘Sign Electronically’.
