INCIDENT MANAGEMENT

Keep your incident response grounded in what happened.

  • Record what happened and keep the investigation and response connected to the original event.

Capture the event, not just a total

  • Record what happened, its school or site, location, occurrence time, category and severity.
  • The occurrence time is separate from the date the event was entered, preserving the context of the event.
  • Filter the register by status, severity and category to locate the incidents that need review.

An investigation is required before closure

  • The implemented lifecycle moves from Reported to Under investigation, then Closed.
  • Closure requires a recorded investigation summary; an incident cannot move directly from Reported to Closed.
  • Record a root cause when the investigation establishes one. The system does not invent a cause to fill an empty field.

Connect the issue to corrective work

  • Link relevant findings to the incident within the same organisation and school.
  • A finding describes the condition; a corrective action records the work needed to address it. These remain separate records with their own progress.
  • Closing an incident records the investigation outcome. It must not be read as proof that every related corrective action has been completed.

Keep sensitive information in its proper domain

  • Operational incident records do not provide fields for named pupils, witness statements or medical histories.
  • Safeguarding concerns use a separate, restricted workflow; ordinary incident access does not grant safeguarding access.
  • Example: record an unsecured gate and investigate access control without including a child’s confidential case narrative.
