Created by Rebecca Hensman-Dymond
Closes on

Implementation of cameras in all school classrooms, hallways and playgrounds covering all areas entrances and exits including bathroom entrances to protect all children and adults and prevent bullying.

Every child deserves to learn in a safe environment. CCTV covering classrooms, hallways, playgrounds, and entrances and exits, while respecting privacy by excluding bathroom interiors but monitoring bathroom entrances, can help deter bullying, protect pupils and staff, provide objective evidence when incidents occur, and improve accountability. Used responsibly with appropriate safeguards, it supports safeguarding, transparency, and faster, fairer investigations.
