Tree Risk & Condition Survey — Moor Park Primary School, Blackpool
Client: Moor Park Primary School — Synergy Education Trust, Blackpool
Project Overview: Moor Park Primary School in Blackpool, part of the Synergy Education Trust, had a number of boundary trees showing structural defects — snapped and cracked stems posing potential risk to pupils, staff, and members of the public using the adjacent footway. A professionally documented risk assessment was required urgently.
Our Role: Urban Tree Management carried out a full tree risk and condition survey across the school grounds — assessing all boundary trees with structural defects in detail using VTA methodology and QTRA risk rating, carried out by Enhanced DBS-checked consultants in compliance with the school's safeguarding requirements.
Findings & Recommendations:
- Snapped and cracked stems identified and structurally assessed
- QTRA risk ratings assigned to all elevated-risk trees
- Prioritised works specification produced — detailed enough to pass directly to tree surgeon for pricing
- Report suitable for school business manager, trustees, and insurers
Outcome: Moor Park Primary School and the Synergy Education Trust received a professionally documented tree risk and condition survey — providing quantified QTRA risk ratings for all elevated-risk trees and a clear prioritised works specification allowing the risks to be addressed systematically and cost-effectively.
