WRC recommends safety review after teacher raises window concern

The WRC recommended that a language school carry out a health and safety review after a teacher raised concerns that a classroom window opened onto a 20-foot drop. The decision was dated 1 April 2025. The school said the window provided ventilation, there had been no incidents and the teacher had not raised a grievance while employed. The adjudication officer noted the worker’s concern and recommended a review to ensure the school’s safety rules followed best practice and protected staff and students.
