Event details
By April 2027, every publicly accessible education setting must be able to demonstrate
compliance with the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025.
Fines for serious failure can reach £18 million.
But your greater risk is being unable to show you acted properly, in good time, and with clear
judgement.
Most schools are not ignoring Martyn’s Law. They are uncertain:
- Which tier applies?
- What is genuinely required?
- Are existing procedures enough?
… and if a lockdown were triggered tomorrow, would it actually work?
This free 60-minute briefing replaces uncertainty with clarity.
By the end of it, you will understand how the law applies to schools and how to determine
your likely tier.
You'll also know what distinguishes paperwork compliance from operational readiness.
We examine evacuation, invacuation and lockdown not as policies, but as actions that must
function under pressure.
We also address the practical realities of compliance: physical security, classroom protection
and instant mass communication.
You will see how solutions such as NIGHTLOCK® classroom door barricades – trusted by
10,423 schools worldwide - and the VoiceOFF IP speaker system can form part of a joined-up,
defensible strategy.
Finally, we outline a realistic pathway to April 2027, covering risk assessment, governance
oversight, installation and staff training.
If you are a Headteacher, Principal, Bursar, Governor, Trustee, Estates lead, or installer this
applies to you.
Register now to gain clarity, reduce risk and decide your next steps with confidence.
All attendees will receive a CPD certificate.
