1.      A comprehensive security system must be in place in the school premises. Guards, perimeter alarms, fire and smoke alarms, CCTV surveillance for common areas are some of the basic essentials schools must make part of the infrastructure. These will not only ensure the safety of all people inside the school but also secure the physical premises of the school.
2.      Hire an authorized security agency to man the premises of your school. Check for references and also get police verification done of all the security personnel.
3.      Issuing student and staff identity cards will make it easier for the security staff to identify individuals who belong to the school and separate out those who are not regulars. Visitors can be provided with special passes for limited time. Some of the top schools in UAE are also making use of electronic key cards to limit access.
4.      A systematic and meticulous record of emergency contact details must be kept in the school for each individual, be it a student or a staff member.
5.      For UAE schools which offer bus pick-and-drop facilities, parents, students, the bus staff and the management must be made aware of the routes and stoppages. Contact numbers must be provided.
6.      At strategic places in the school, emergency contact numbers of such authorities like the fire safety department, ambulance, hospital, police, etc. must be mentioned for all to see and make use of in case of untoward incidents.
7.      Mock fire drills must be conducted periodically to teach students how to deal with unexpected emergencies. These can be conducted either in coordination with local civic agencies or by the management singly.
