health and safety

health and safety

10 things you need to no if .working with in the classroom or studio

1.  Take off outdoor clothes when you enter the classroom.sleeves and scarves could get caught on something or dip in something)

2. Tuck bags and coats under the table or hang them on the hook if available (stops them becoming a trip hazard),

3. Clean up spilled liquids immediately to avoid slips and falls,

4.Walk sensibly around the room, (obvious)

5. Leave food and drink outside the classroom (eating with painty hands is not a good idea, tuna on you painting is also not a good idea)

6. Always wash your hands before leaving the room (not great to go to lunch with clay still up your finger nails)

7.  Walk sensibly with scissors and other sharp objects (you would be surprised how many students don't realise they should do this.)

8. Tie long hair back (don't want any nasty incidents with hair being caught equipment,

9. Wear an apron (it protects you and your clothes),

10. Listen to the teacher (not just for the teachers own sanity but because they might be giving important health and safety information such as when to leave the classroom during a fire drill)

tips and skills

Employers are often looking for skills that go beyond qualifications and experience.

While your education and experience may make you eligible to apply for a job, to be successful at the job you will need to exhibit a mix of skills ‘employability skills’.  This means that the specialist, technical skills associated with different roles may be less important than the 'soft skills' that can be transferred between different jobs and different employment sectors. 

For employers, getting the right people means identifying people with the right skills and qualities to fulfil the role and contribute to the organisation's success.  Candidates may have the qualifications and hard skills needed to be able to manage the job role but without a well-honed set of 'soft skills' employers are less inclined to hire.limcourse and night classes
