It is recommended that schools complete a biosecurity plan for their school. Completing a school biosecurity plan will provide a valuable opportunity to educate students about the importance of biosecurity in Australia and help protect your school from the entry and spread of pests and diseases. The NSW Department of Education has developed two biosecurity plan templates for schools to use.</p><p><a href="/content/dam/main-education/documents/teaching-and-learning/curriculum/tas/tas-s4-s5-biosecurity-template-for-non-ag-schools-short-version.docx">Template A (DOCX 68 KB)</a> is intended for use by schools that have minimal plant and animal production and do not require a Property Identification Code (PIC).
