01What we cover
Coverage that respects the site, not just fills it
Schools need cameras positioned around a safeguarding policy, not a generic layout. We survey the site and specify each area on its own terms.

02Typical specification
What we would usually specify for a school site
Positioning and retention are agreed with the school before anything is installed, so cameras only cover what's needed and nothing more. This is a starting point — every system is planned around your site and safeguarding policy.
Safeguarding-appropriate positioning cameras angled to cover entrances and communal areas without capturing private spaces.
Retention matched to your policy typically aligned with the school’s data protection and safeguarding policy.
Named staff access office and site management review footage without needing to call an engineer.
Works alongside existing systems integrated with access control and fire systems already on site, not replacing what works.

04School CCTV FAQs
Schools covering communal areas for safeguarding and security purposes typically don’t need individual parental consent, but should have clear signage and cover CCTV in the school’s privacy notice. We’ll advise on this during the survey.
Yes. Cameras are positioned to cover entrances, corridors, playgrounds and boundaries — not classrooms, toilets or changing areas.
Retention is agreed with the school and typically matched to your safeguarding and data protection policy — 31 days is a common starting point.
Usually, yes. Our engineers check what’s already on site and integrate around it rather than replacing what already works.
Yes — aftercare calls are answered during opening hours, and we can prioritise school sites given limited access outside term time.
