Physical Security in Schools

Evolving school security expectations

From unauthorised access to emergency preparedness, schools face growing pressure to keep their premises safe, compliant, and future-ready. With rising expectations and new legislation on the horizon, physical security is no longer just about infrastructure — it's about creating environments where staff and students feel protected.

Staying ahead of physical security risks

We help MATs and schools design proactive, scalable physical security strategies that protect people and premises, support daily operations and strengthen safeguarding and emergency preparedness.
