For One-off Day Visits specific information has to be provided to parents and should include:
- The aims and benefits
- The activity and its learning objectives
- The venue
- Travel arrangements
- Insurance cover
- Supervision arrangements
It is recommended that parental consent for the majority of off-site visits is gained at induction or annually. This can include One-off Day Visits.
The exceptions to this are One-off Day visits that include adventure activities or visits to hazardous environments (see Section 13). On these occasions, specific trip parental consent has to be obtained and this should include a request for up to date medical information which may have an impact on the visit (see matrix on Visit Approval, Medical Information and Parental Consent in the toolkits section of the website).
