Student Risk Assessment for Media Studies

This risk assessment document evaluates potential hazards students may face while taking photos for a college course in the Media Studies department. It identifies five hazards: tripping on wires in the studio; damaging equipment or doors while moving a piano; making noise to disturb other classes while using a blue screen; tripping over or breaking lights in the equipment area; and disturbing other students during an outdoor photoshoot. For each hazard, it rates the degree of risk, lists existing control measures, and proposes further actions if needed. The goal is to complete the tasks safely and without interfering with other college activities.

out of the way and putting them to
one side such as speakers and
microphones.

Asking the music teacher- Chris


Phelps if he could assist us
when moving the equipment so
that we do not disturb any
equipment that was set up by
the A2 students.

Making sure we take it slowly


when taking the piano out of its
room and we have other people
holding the doors and directing us.

assist us when moving the
piano because he knows how
the process works.

Making sure we are as quiet as we


can when doing the photoshoot.

around freely.

We need to wait till all of the


students have cleared up- this
could mean that we might have to
wait till after college when
everyone has left and then we can
take the pictures without being
disturbed.

We could also have Raz or


Richard to assist us whilst
doing the photoshoot so that
nothing goes wrong..
