We take into account an array of factors, include your premises’ size, when you need a security presence, and any additional requirements you may have.
An integral part of securing every area of your school, from playgrounds and yards to classrooms and lunch halls, security personnel can ensure the complete safety of everyone at your school.

Our on-site security personnel serve as a strong deterrent to potential criminals and trespassers. Opting for Churchill Support Services guarantees highly trained professionals with vast experience, dedicated to ensuring the complete safety and security of every aspect of your educational establishment.
Mobile security patrols are pivotal in ensuring your school’s comprehensive security. They serve as a robust deterrent against potential threats and swiftly respond to disturbances. Regular patrols fortify the integrity of your property’s boundaries, promptly addressing any issues that arise.
A physical security presence is crucial, particularly for larger schools, colleges or campuses. Our skilled mobile security professionals ensure strict control of site access and continuous monitoring of every area, providing unparalleled peace of mind and comprehensive security for your premises, students, and teachers.
A crucial aspect of school security solutions is the surveillance and monitoring system. At Churchill, our cutting-edge technology, paired with our advanced 24/7/365 Communications Centre, guarantees comprehensive coverage for your entire site, with multiple monitoring points and robust solutions.
When combined with our adept security personnel, CCTV systems add an additional layer to your security measures, ensuring a prompt and efficient response to potential threats or issues. Our extensively trained operatives are dedicated to providing a swift response to any disturbances and are fully equipped to collaborate with emergency services as needed.
A crucial aspect of safeguarding your school and ensuring peace of mind is the key holding and alarm response package we provide here at Churchill Support Services. This service adds an extra level of assurance to complement your current security measures, guaranteeing complete safety and security even when your staff and students are away for the holidays.
Within this package, we securely store duplicate keys of your property both off-site at an undisclosed location, and on-site. Our 24/7 availability and our robust alarm response service both ensure personalised locking and unlocking services that take into account key aspects like half-terms, opening and closing times, and any after-school activities.
From the more traditional ID badges and access fobs, to cutting edge solutions like biometric scanning and facial recognition, our access control features for schools allow you to ensure the consummate safety of all staff-only areas, such as server rooms, printing facilities, and storage closets.
Our installation processes are not only swift and effective, but guarantee the peace of mind you need to continue providing essential education and support. That’s especially true when school access controls are used in tandem with more robust and visible security measures, such as security personnel and CCTV cameras.
Our solutions are tailored to your specific premises and security requirements, guaranteeing that you’ll receive a personalised, first-rate service each and every time.

The presence of security guards provides an effective visual deterrent, turning away potential criminals and shielding your property from vandalism, theft, and other crime.
With our security guards able to adapt and fulfil multiple roles such as concierge duties and conducting risk assessments, you can keep costs down without compromising on vital services.
Education is, it goes without saying, an essential part of our lives and development. From nurseries and pre-schools right through to university campuses, securing our students and dedicated teaching staff is crucial. That’s especially true given the soaring incidents of crime and criminal behaviour that our education system is plagued by.
The latest data shows that almost two thirds (64%) of all schools experienced some form of crime in the last 12 months, costing an average of £13,000 worth of damage and disruption. Antisocial behaviour (28%) and trespassing (24%) are the two most common crimes reported, with current students making up the lion’s share of offenders (35%).
