Module 1 of 4

Before arrival: planning and assessment

Eight in the morning. The activity starts at ten. You have two hours and an incomplete task list.

You are coordinating a volunteer activity at an open school grounds. Expected attendance: forty children aged eight to thirteen, and ten volunteers. The organiser who was responsible for the risk log excused himself yesterday. The file exists but is incomplete. You have decided to complete it.

Question 1

Reviewing the risk log, you find only one entry: "bad weather". What is the correct first step?

Question 2

You find a metal gate with sharp edges near the play area. How do you record this risk in the log?

Question 3

A volunteer suggests starting at nine-thirty instead of ten because the weather is good. You have preparation tasks unfinished. What do you do?

Module 2 of 4

During the activity: documentation and media

The activity is going well. A volunteer takes out a phone and starts photographing. The questions do not wait.

A volunteer is photographing the group of children and wants to post immediately on the organisation's social media. Some children are smiling at the camera, but no explicit digital publication consent forms have been signed. Later, a minor incident: a child bumped into the wall and bruised their knee.

Question 4

The volunteer wants to post photos now. What do you do?

Question 5

The child who bruised their knee is crying. What is the first thing you do?

Question 6

After the child is stable, what do you write in the incident report?

Module 3 of 4

The real emergency

Twelve noon. A child complains of difficulty breathing and looks pale. This is not a bruise.

Suddenly several children gather around a ten-year-old girl. She looks pale and is breathing with difficulty. A volunteer says she has chronic allergies. There is no doctor on site. Your emergency plan states an assembly point at the north entrance and a safety lead named Ahmed.

Question 7

What is the first and fastest step right now?

Question 8

A volunteer suggests giving her an allergy medicine he has in his bag. What do you do?

Question 9

After the ambulance arrives and the situation resolves, what must your report to your supervisor include?

Module 4 of 4

End of day: evaluation and documentation

The activity is over. The children have left. Now the harder work begins: documenting what happened honestly.

It was a hard day: a good activity overall, a minor incident, and an emergency you managed. Your supervisor will read your report tomorrow. You have decided to document everything honestly, including the moment you were delayed by two minutes in calling emergency services because a volunteer insisted on looking for medicine first.

Question 10

Do you mention in the report that a volunteer acted incorrectly?

Question 11

After finishing your report, another volunteer suggests posting today's photos on social media now because "the day was a success". What do you say?

Question 12

You want to save the complete documentation files for this day. Which method is correct?
