What does our College Fire Risk Assessment include
Campus survey
The tour begins in the boiler plant and ends on the roof. Classrooms, labs, ICT suites, refectory kitchens, recording studios, sports halls and caretaker stores all go on the checklist. Ignition risks like solder irons in design tech, microwaves in staff rooms and charging lockers full of laptops are paired with fuel loads such as stage curtains and library beanbags. Photos pin to your campus plan so the site team can find the exact socket cluster that needs attention. We walk an evacuation at a moderate student pace and note pinch points where lockers or student art narrow the route.
Grease-laden ducts act like fuse lines in a blaze. We inspect hood filters, photo build-up and flag cleaning intervals that meet TR19. Catering managers appreciate the data when insurers ask tough questions.
Fire Alarm Inspection
The assessor triggers detectors in corridors, chemistry stores, roof voids and server rooms. Mains power is isolated to prove batteries hold a full day plus thirty minutes of sounder time. Noise mapping aims for sixty-five decibels in teaching areas and seventy-five in boarding flats if the college has residential wings. The fault log prints at reception and every code is translated to plain English before we leave.
Emergency Lighting Testing
A three-hour battery discharge shows which fittings fade before ten minutes. Lux readings capture blind corners behind bleacher seating and along prefabricated classrooms on the field. Each luminaire gains an asset tag and appears on your plan so the caretaker can test monthly with ease.
From art block to library we measure door gaps with a three-millimetre target, inspect seals for paint and confirm self-closers latch. Magnetic holds on folding partitions release during the alarm test and we trace walls into ceiling voids making sure no cable tray leaves a hidden path for smoke.
Risk Evaluation & Action Plan
Findings land in a Red Amber Green grid. A Red item carries a seven-day deadline for issues like blocked exits behind exam desks. An Amber item gets thirty days perhaps an expired fire blanket in the art kiln room. Green items sit on a ninety-day horizon suggesting moves such as relocating e-bike chargers to a vented cage. Cost bands of less than two-hundred-fifty pounds, two-fifty to nine-ninety-nine and one-thousand plus help bursars approve work without spreadsheet marathons.
Digital Compliance Pack
Paper folders often wander. A password protected cloud bundle holds the FRA, alarm cert, lighting log and door schedule all linked to high-resolution photos. Editable log-book templates arrive filled so the caretaker only ticks and signs. One share link keeps governors, insurers and fire officers in the loop without email trails.
