Keeping teachers, students, and visitors safe while on site requires a comprehensive approach to education security systems.
Schools, colleges, and universities have a unique responsibility to ensure a secure environment in which staff and students can focus on learning without any risk of disruption.
At Protive, we deliver bespoke education security solutions designed to address the distinct challenges that educational institutions face while providing robust protection for people, property, and assets.
From controlling access to buildings, monitoring large open spaces, and ensuring a swift response during emergencies, our security services support a welcoming learning atmosphere.
We work closely with educational institutions in Liverpool, Manchester, and across the North West to deliver reliable, easy-to-manage, school security solutions tailored to their needs.
Intelligent Access Control for Schools & Colleges
Access control systems give schools and colleges enhanced ability to manage who enters their premises and when.
At Protive, we design and install access control systems as part of our comprehensive school security solutions, ensuring only authorised individuals can move freely around the campus.
These systems can be tailored to suit different sites and layouts, from single-entry primary schools to multi-building university campuses.
Whether you’re looking to manage access across the site during school hours, track visitor entry, or monitor movements between sites, they’re easy to operate.
Key features of our educational access control systems include:
- Keycard, fob, or PIN-based entry for staff and students
- Biometric systems (e.g., fingerprint or facial recognition) for high-security areas
- Visitor management and temporary access credentials
- Integration with existing fire alarm and lockdown systems
- Real-time reporting for incident investigation
- Remote management and control via desktop or mobile
Tower College, a privately owned school based in Rainhill, Merseyside, recently approached Protive because they wanted to improve the level of control they had over their campus access points.
The school caters to students aged from three up to 16 and, as a result, security and safety are a high priority.
CCTV for Educational Institutions
CCTV has become an integral part of comprehensive education security systems, playing a vital role in maintaining a secure environment across school and college sites.
We install discreet, high-definition CCTV systems that can monitor key areas including entrances, corridors, car parks, and playgrounds.
These can deter incidents, better support safeguarding, and provide essential evidence if required.
Key features of our educational CCTV systems include:
- HD and infrared cameras for clear day or night footage
- Coverage of high-traffic and vulnerable areas
- Remote viewing via desktop or mobile
- Integration with access control and alarm systems
- Real-time alerts and motion detection
- GDPR-compliant data management and storage
All of our systems are installed and maintained by Protive-trained engineers and are tailored to meet your safeguarding policies.
School & College Intruder Alarms
Educational sites contain large amounts of valuable equipment, making them a target for theft and vandalism.
It’s vital that school and college buildings are protected from theft, vandalism, and unauthorised access.
That’s why Protive installs reliable, monitored intruder alarm systems designed for the unique needs of educational settings.
Our intruder alarm systems feature:
- 24/7 monitored protection
- Motion detectors and door/window sensors
- Integration with CCTV and access control
- Remote alerts for site managers

Installed by our trained engineers, intruder alarms can provide strong deterrence and support a speedy response, keeping your site safe at all times of the day.

Lockdown Procedures & Emergency Communication
To ensure that students and staff are safeguarded and secure during critical incidents, it’s essential that effective lockdown procedures and emergency communication systems are in place.
Clear, coordinated communication and the ability to quickly secure buildings is the cornerstone of any education security system.
Whether there’s a medical emergency, an external threat, or intruders on site, swift lockdown activation and site-wide alerts can make a critical difference.
