EOTC Consent Form Education Outside the Classroom (EOTC) Blanket Consent FormThis EOTC form is to cover events that occur during a school day and conclude prior to approximately 6.00pm. Our local walking trips/visits consent relates exclusively to those that fall in the 6km radius of the school site. Further, where an event involves risk exposure greater than what would typically be the case at school, such as adventurous activities or hazardous environments or the event continues overnight, specific consent will be required. At the time of our seeking any further consents you will also be asked to update the health and contact information held by school. It is important that this form is completed at the start of each year for all students who will be participating in EOTC events (as described above). Details on this form will remain confidential to school staff, contractors and volunteers associated with supervising activities on EOTC events.
