Educational facilities are not exempt from the risks of Legionella, a type of bacteria found in water. Managing the risk of Legionella contamination in schools is crucial to prevent the devastating consequences of an outbreak of Legionnaires' disease which can affect children or school staff and visitors. This involves having a good understanding of risk assessment, management and the ongoing processes necessary to keep the environment safe.
