During the SRP Action: lockdown, individual rooms are to be secured, and students are to stay quiet and hidden.

The Lockdown action is typically followed by the directive “Locks. Lights. Out of Sight.”

Lockdowns are issued when student and staff safety is threatened inside of the school building. Students and staff are to lock or barricade themselves within the room and hide quietly until help arrives to safely release them.

OSCR360 can be implemented into your school’s emergency plans. See how the system can assist with planning and training for a school lockdown.

The SRP Action: Secure is followed by the directive “Get inside. Lock outside doors.”

When the secure directive is issued, it indicates that there is a potential danger outside of the school building. The intention is to safeguard students within the confines of the locked school. All students and staff are to go inside, and the exterior doors of the school building are locked. There are typically few, if any, changes to the normal happenings within the school building during this type of temporary threat.

The SRP focuses on providing uniformity and consistency for responding to any – and every – type of hazardous scenario. As part of a school district’s broader emergency plan, the SRP promotes the use of both common language and common expectations when teaching and training students, staff, and first responders on emergency protocols.
