IMPLEMENTATION PLAN
Natural Surveillance
See and be seen. Arranging physical features to maximize visibility, if people know they can be seen, they are less likely to engage in disorderly, violent, or illegal activity.
Natural Access Control
Who gets in and who gets out. Guiding people to areas where you want them to go and out of areas where you don't.
Territorial Reinforcement
This is our space. Clearly defining the school ground boundaries through fencing, landscaping, and signs.
Proper Maintenance
Fix what is not up to the mark and is hazardous. Taking care to ensure building services function properly and safely.
Training and Awareness
Remedial tools. Organizing Training and awareness for Students and all teaching and non teaching staff beyond skill development.
