1 INTRODUCTION This policy, reflecting the Mission Statement of Mercy Primary, concerns the school s reaction to a Critical Incident i.e. any incident or sequence of events which overwhelms the normal coping mechanisms of the school e.g. sudden death/serious accident/injury/natural disaster/school intrusion involving student/teacher/ staff member/parent etc. This policy is concerned with reflecting the mission statement of Mercy Primary (and supporting our health and safety statement and policies in all other related areas e.g. policy on countering bullying, policy on child welfare and protection, policy on school tours etc); ensuring the School s reaction in an ordered and orderly manner to any Critical Incidents (as outlined above) which may occur; RATIONALE /VISION The rational for this policy is for clarity, in advance, regarding identification of specific tasks and key roles in the performance of specific tasks and in supporting the children of the school in the immediate aftermath of a critical incident in the days immediately succeeding such incident. AIMS The policy, in the event of a Critical Incident, aims to: retain an ordered and orderly environment in Mercy Primary provide guidance for pupils, teachers and parents; facilitate co-operation among staff and between staff, parents and pupils; provide clear understanding of the roles and responsibilities of all parties involved; develop a team approach to coping; foster a strong sense of community within the school with shared insights and recognition of differing needs; maintain a safe environment for pupils, parents and staff of the school; take account of the particular needs and circumstances of the school and the particular event.
