EXPERT ADVICE ON LOCKDOWN in schools

Lockdown is the subject that I am asked the most questions about:

• How do we ensure our lockdown plans work?
• Should we include pupils and students in our drills?
• How do we do this without scaring our school community?
• Is there step by step guidance to help us develop policies and plans?
• How can we assure our plans without expertise in counter-terrorism?

In my experience, lockdown plans in schools are often written without considering an act of terrorism or serious violence.  There is no off-the-shelf package that provides all the answers but there are some important principles that can be applied to the unique context of your site.

I work with schools, colleges and universities to understand this unique context and provide clear guidance and support on developing plans that work.  Lockdown plans should not be there to tick a box.  These are critical plans that could save lives and it is essential that these plans are tested to ensure they are effective, and understood by everyone at your site.
