Bosch Security and Delta Fire & Security Protection tackle class
disruptions at Beardwood School
Bosch Security Systems, the UK’s
leading provider of high-quality security solutions, has
supplied its proven EnviroDome cameras and its VIDOS
Video Management System for an integrated CCTV system at
Beardwood High School in Blackburn.
Disruption to education is an ongoing and significant
problem for schools across the UK but when Beardwood
School, which is responsible for educating some 1,100
students, was experiencing disruptions from children
setting off fire alarms during school time it decided to
take drastic action to address the problem.
The school looked to Delta Fire & Security Protection to
commission an integrated CCTV solution using
high-quality products from Bosch Security Systems. Delta
Fire & Security Protection, based in Lancashire but with
national coverage, has been operating for over 25 years.
Delta has been working with Bosch for two years and
recently became a Bosch Security Systems Dealer, and so
receives superior levels of customer service and support
from Bosch, enabling it to build and grow long-term
relationships with its customers.
The new security system at Beardwood School has been
introduced in two phases. The first phase was to tackle
the immediate fire alarm problem and saw the
installation of some 35 internal cameras and one
external camera. They are predominantly positioned in
the corridors to cover the school’s fire alarms whilst
also monitoring the central corridor areas, entrance and
exit doors and the fire escape routes.
An independent Cat 5 network was installed during the
summer holidays specifically for the use of the CCTV
system, transmitting both video and audio to the
dedicated server housed at the school’s Facilities
Management office, with a secondary control PC at the
school’s reception.
At the front end is Bosch Security Systems' VIDOS Video
Management System, specifically designed for IP-based
CCTV surveillance installations, and next-generation
Network Video Recorders.
The VIDOS network video recorder provides a long-term
storage and retrieval solution for video and audio as
part of a Bosch Video IP installation. Comprising three
key components: management software, a server platform,
and RAID 5 storage, VIDOS-NVR scales to handle an
unlimited number of cameras and users. VIDOS is a
one-stop solution, it has everything needed to view and
control fixed and PTZ cameras with fast response times.
In addition to real-time video management, VIDOS is used
to set up and configure the system by automatically
scanning the network for compatible devices, while
continuously monitoring the health of key components.
Phase two of the security installation saw the
installation of six additional internal cameras and
seven external fully functional Bosch EnviroDome
cameras. The EnviroDome is rugged in design and its
proven reliability ensures that the high-resolution
camera captures the finest detail even in adverse
weather conditions. Along with the additional cameras
Delta Fire & Security Protection is also proving an
additional half terabyte of hard disk storage.
Presets will be provided by means of external Redwall
movement detectors and will be backed up with external
speakers for future expansion of the system to off-site
transmission to a remote CCTV monitoring station.
The installation has made a substantial difference to
the school as Kevin Glover, Premises Manager for
Beardwood School explains: “Students setting off the
fire alarms was a persistent problem for us, with up to
six per day it was a serious issue and causing major
disruption. Every fire alarm, false alarm or not has to
be taken seriously and every evacuation is a disruption
to the children’s education so we had to address it.
“We know that CCTV cameras are not a panacea and we do
not wish to take a ‘big brother’ approach but the
security system has been very effective and since its
introduction we have not have any fire alarms triggered
by misbehaving students, we’ve seen a marked reduction
in crime and an improvement in behaviour.”
Jeremy Hockham, UK Managing Director of Bosch Security
Systems: ”We are pleased to see that Bosch technology
has been chosen for this installation, it will offer a
practical and dependable solution to an undesirable
problem for Beardwood School.”
