First Published in 1998. The development of disaster planning in schools and colleges usually goes hand in hand with an element of safety planning: the actual process of planning for disaster itself suggests improvements in procedures which ensure a greater level of safety. Preventive measures are devised which make the likelihood of tragedies and accidents befalling an institution a little less likely. This training manual aims to help schools and colleges examine and enhance their own procedures for keeping pupils, students and staff safe and to assist in the development of disaster plans to help them to cope better in times of crisis. Until fairly recently no school had such a thing as a disaster plan or a safety and disaster plan. With increased awareness of tragedies and accidents that can occur, more focused health and safety legislation and, one has to say, the greater likelihood of litigation, schools are urgently turning their attention to such matters

In today's rapidly changing world a constant renewal of knowledge and skills in every human endeavour can be observed. The characteristics of workers and the jobs that they perform have been attended by technological, social, and political change on a global scale. New forms of employment have made work more mobile to an extent never experienced before. An increasing proportion of workers no longer need come to their employer's job site in order to do their work. The instability of employment is creating a new breed of workers who know how to move efficiently from one job to another. As a consequence workers need flexible qualifications to perform jobs. Key qualifications are the answer! Key qualifications provide the key to rapid and effective acquisition of new knowledge and skills. First, qualifications enable workers to react effectively to, and exercise initiative in, changes to their work. Second, qualifications enable workers to shape their own career in a time of diminishing job security, nowadays frequently defined as `employability'.
