Kier Academy Schools

Case Study

Client Overview

Kier Academy Schools, comprising Northfleet Technology College, St John’s Catholic Comprehensive School, and Thamesview School, stand as pillars of education excellence in Kent, England. Each school holds a unique identity while collectively offering top-tier secondary education and sixth form programs to students aged 11 and above. These institutions play a pivotal role in nurturing future generations and fostering academic growth.

Educational Excellence and Security Enhancement

Kier Academy Schools embarked on a journey to provide not only exceptional education but also a secure and safe environment for students, faculty, and staff. As part of the Building Schools for the Future program, Kier Academy Schools, managed by Kier Group, envisioned modern school buildings equipped with cutting-edge facilities, including state-of-the-art vocational learning areas. In this pursuit, the leadership recognised the paramount importance of robust security systems to ensure the well-being of everyone within the school premises.

Hunters: Pioneering Security Solutions

Hunters designed, implemented, and maintains a comprehensive access control system across all three schools, which collectively feature over 200 doors. This sophisticated system empowers school administrators with the ability to efficiently manage entry and exit points, ensuring authorised personnel can seamlessly access the premises while safeguarding against unauthorised access. The access control system stands as a cornerstone of the schools’ security framework, contributing to a safe and controlled environment.

CCTV Surveillance: Vigilance Beyond Boundaries

With a commitment to comprehensive surveillance, Hunters integrated an extensive CCTV network across the schools. Over 275 strategically positioned IP cameras span the campuses, providing a watchful eye on all activities. The Estates room serves as the nerve center where the live feeds from the cameras are monitored. This vigilance ensures a proactive approach to security, enabling quick responses to any potential incidents and maintaining a secure atmosphere conducive to learning.
