To ensure the safety of the students and staff at Mount Carmel RC High School, we have in operation an Access Control System on external doors. This system not only reduces the risk of intruders gaining access into school it helps protect the school’s property.
To enter the school in the morning students must use the doors near the Twelve Star dining room. These doors will be unlocked at 8.10am.
The other external doors will be locked-down apart from:
- The beginning and end of the school day
- During break and lunch time
- Five minutes before the start of a period doors will be unlocked
- Seven minutes after a period has started doors will be locked
If students try to gain access into the school at any other time and find that the external doors are locked they will only be able to gain access by going to the school’s pastoral office doors and informing the pastoral staff of their arrival.
The Access Control System is linked into the school’s fire alarm system and therefore all doors will automatically release in the event of a fire.
