Answer from Hansard
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Education (Stephen Morgan)
Safeguarding children in schools is a priority for this Government, and schools have a critical role to play in protecting children and keeping them safe. Departmental guidance is clear that schools and colleges should have a policy and an emergency plan in place to manage and respond to security-related incidents.
