LOCKDOWN ALERT SYSTEM | MARTYN'S LAW COMPLIANT

WHY A LOCKDOWN ALERT SYSTEM IS NOW ESSENTIAL

The Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 — commonly known as Martyn’s Law — introduces a new Protect Duty for owners and operators of publicly accessible premises throughout the UK.

From April 2025, schools, colleges, and universities are legally required to:

  • Assess the risk of a terrorist or hostile event.
  • Implement procedures to protect pupils, staff, and visitors.
  • Train personnel in how to respond effectively.
  • Communicate quickly and clearly in the event of an incident.

For education settings, Martyn’s Law emphasises measures such as having a clear, audible lockdown alert distinct from fire or evacuation alarms.
