I put orange on my 4M. Anything under gets a green. and anything 10M or over gets a red dot - Teacher only. Thats how I look at it.

Re: DOTS on Chemicals
We use riskassess here! (gottta say I like it). So I use that. when the teacher places their chemicals required for a prac in riskassess it tells you whether it is for K-12, 7-10, 11-12 or teacher only and I add dots accordingly, if I need to make up chemicals/labels.
If I need to find the appropriate dot I just look it up in riskassess and it tells me, no thinking required.(I like that). As the same person who did csis also did riskassess, so any updates to chemicals would be in riskassess instead of the old csis manual.
I also use it to ensure that teachers are not ordering unsafe chemicals for the little ones, in which case I alert the head teacher and they can advise me whether I can dispense the chemical or not.
