FIRE DRILL PROCEDURE

IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE…

A member of staff will activate the fire alarm.

You will hear the alarm bells ring three times


Take the evacuation in a calm orderly manner, leaving all personal belongings behind.


Those sitting by the windows will make sure these are close before leaving the classroom.


The students will line up and walk quickly to the assembly point, led by their teacher. The students are expected to follow any instructions given to them by the staff.


In our case the exit route to be used is the door on the right at the end of the corridor, leading to the playground.


Then everyone must go to the assembly point in the area by the yellow gate


No running is to be permitted to avoid panic.


Anyone who is not in class when the fire alarm sounds must go immediately to the assembly point.


A roll call should be conducted: at the assembly point the teacher will check the students against the register and report to the senior member of staff that the students and staff are ALL accounted for.


Staff and students will wait at the assembly point until told by the fire officer that it is safe to re-enter the building and the all-clear is given.


On no account re-enter the building until the “all-clear” is given.

The safety of the students is paramount and any instructions given by the fire service should be acted upon immediately.
