The ‘Guide to Intruder Detection in Schools’ offers practical steps to ensure the protection of school facilities, staff, students and visitors from the growing threats posed by criminal activity and anti-social behaviour that occur on school premises.

Statistics show that crime is increasingly becoming a challenge for schools making increased security measures a necessity. While intruder alarms are commonplace in the majority of schools, and are indisputably a deterrent for criminals, the guide explains the importance of tailored security systems with effective detection and signalling to increase security and reduce false alarms.

Keeping pupils, staff and school property safe from both accidental incidents and criminal activity is a serious ongoing task that requires specialist guidance. To offer the level of security required by schools, ADT offers integrated systems with alarms, CCTV, motion detectors and monitored signalling, tailored to fit the needs of each individual facility. 

ADT shares recommendations on how schools can not only select an appropriate intruder system, but also develop an overall security strategy to reinforce it.
