G4S Security Systems has a long track record of working in the public sector
for a wide variety of organisations and institutions from government departments
through to hospitals and schools.
We also understand that standards are of great importance: our wide range of accreditations
including NACOSS, BSIA, EXOR and Constructionline provide many of the assurances
our clients need that our work is always of the highest standards.
The need for security systems in school, although an unfortunate side of modern
life, reflects, perhaps more positively, the complex and expensive equipment that
is now available to many pupils, in the form of computers and scientific equipment.
It is for this reason that Haydock High School and Rainhill High School in Merseyside
sought out the assistance of G4S Security Systems to supply a high quality security
systems to protect the city learning centres built on their premises
City Learning Centres are a key element of the Excellence in Cities programme.
They are located in the main on secondary school sites and provide state of the
art ICT-based learning opportunities for pupils at a network of local schools
and for the wider community.
Their importance not just to one school but to a network of schools and the community
beyond means that protecting them is vital not only because of the financial cost
of replacing them, but because of the educational opportunities lost to the pupils
if the equipment was unavailable.
G4S Security Systems has supplied a sophisticated integrated system incorporating
Access Control, CCTV, and an intruder alarm system that will help protect these
invaluable educational assets.
