Asbestos in schools covers the identification, management and remediation of asbestos-containing materials in school buildings, and the duties on owners and operators to protect pupils and staff from exposure. A solicitor in this area advises on risk assessments, the appointment of competent persons, the formulation of asbestos management plans, and compliance with the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012, the Health and Safety at Work Act, and related codes. They may liaise with school governors, local authorities, and the HSE to address discovery, removal or enclosure of asbestos.
The solicitor handles duties under regulation, reports findings, drafts management plans, and coordinates with site managers, trades, and external contractors. They interpret the regulatory framework, review risk assessments, and ensure timely action to avoid exposure, including arranging surveys, securing access for removal, and communicating with school trustees and insurers about liability and remediation.
