Visit Emergency Support

An emergency on a school visit can happen at any time – and school leaders need access to swift and timely advice.  The Visit Emergency Support Network (VESN) – 24 hour critical incident support from a team of 5 experienced advisers working in partnership.  All schools that subscribe to Longtown EVAS have access to this service.

Mike always delivers his courses very well, taking account of the situations and contexts of the attendees. The information and discussions are relevant and thought provoking. A very useful session.
