WELL DONE CHILDREN - LOCKDOWN DRILL26 October 2023 (by admin) |
As part of our whole school safeguarding agenda at St. Bernard's, we had a LOCKDOWN DRILL in school today. Children were an absolute credit.
On hearing the lockdown bell, staff went into school lockdown protocol.
A lockdown drill has all school doors, school gates, windows etc. locked for security and safety reasons. School uses the internal phone system to communicate all messages to staff and children during lockdown.
Emergency services can also ask a school to go into lockdown.
A local fire, chemical spillage, wild animal on the school site can be different reasons why a school has to execute a lockdown.
WELL DONE children. Very (very) sensible today.
