Are accidents to pupils sustained in PE lessons reportable under RIDDOR?

Yes, but only if the pupil is killed or taken to hospital for treatment of the injury and the accident arose out of or was connected to the school’s or college’s work. For example, the accident arose because of poor organisation or supervision arrangements, the equipment or the condition of the premises, e.g. a potholed tarmac surface.
