All policies are reviewed annually and staff who are resonsible for each policy liase with eachother to ensure that all policies are aligned. This year when staff have been reviewing their policy they have emailed other staff members who it may link to before creating the final draft therfore staff members can discuss any adaptations that need to be made.
