CCTV for Schools
CCTV For Educational Institutions
School security is a top priority for educational institutions, and many schools in the UK are turning to CCTV systems to increase safety. In fact, the majority of UK secondary schools now use CCTV as a security measure, with one report estimating 85% of secondary schools had CCTV in place as far back as 2009.
The Department for Education (DfE) even recommends that schools consider CCTV as part of a comprehensive approach to safeguarding and security, to help deter vandalism, monitor access points, and assist in incident investigations

CCTV Systems for Schools
A typical school CCTV system consists of multiple cameras placed at strategic locations, recording video to a central system (such as an NVR, network video recorder) that authorised personnel can monitor.
The design of a school’s CCTV network starts with identifying key areas that require surveillance. Common coverage points include main entrances and exits, hallways and corridors, stairwells, cafeterias, libraries, playgrounds, car parks, and other open areas where students congregate.
By focusing on these public areas, schools can monitor for intruders, ensure students are safe between classes, and keep an eye on any hotspots for bullying or misbehaviour.
CCTV Installation for Schools
We understand the particular challenges that school sites present – from old buildings with thick walls (which may require careful cabling and wireless links) to modern campuses that need coverage over large areas.
When we install CCTV in a school, we begin with a thorough site survey to identify security vulnerabilities and determine the optimal camera positions without disrupting the school’s aesthetics or operations.
Our engineers are familiar with working in educational settings and hold enhanced DBS checks, so you can trust that all work is carried out safely and professionally on school premises.
