Security in the Education Sector
Keeping Students and Staff Safe Across Campuses in the UK
At Auxilium Services Ltd, our security officers play a vital role in maintaining a safe and secure environment across educational sites, including schools, colleges, and universities. We understand that learning can only thrive when staff, students, and visitors feel protected — and that’s where our professional presence makes the difference.
What Our Officers Do on Education Sites:
1. Access Control
Our officers manage entry and exit points, checking ID cards and visitor passes, and making sure only authorised individuals are allowed onto the premises. This helps to prevent trespassing and ensures a safer space for all.
2. Emergency Response
Whether it's a medical emergency, fire alarm, or unexpected threat, our team is trained to act fast and calmly. They work closely with emergency services when required and help coordinate safe evacuation or lockdown procedures.
3. Conflict Management & De-escalation
From minor disputes between students to more serious incidents, our officers are skilled in de-escalating tension without escalating the situation. They support school policies and help enforce rules when needed — always with a balanced, fair approach.
4. Safety Awareness & Education
Security isn’t just about being on patrol — it’s also about prevention. Our officers may support schools by delivering safety briefings or helping to educate students and staff about emergency protocols, lockdown drills, and general security awareness.
5. Incident Reporting & Documentation
Every incident is logged properly. From low-level concerns to significant events, officers are responsible for writing accurate, detailed reports that can be used by senior staff or in further investigations. This also helps schools meet safeguarding and health & safety requirements.
Enhanced DBS Checks for Education Security Staff
Because safeguarding is essential in educational settings, all of our officers assigned to schools, colleges, and universities undergo an Enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) Check as part of our comprehensive recruitment and vetting process. This ensures that every officer is fully vetted and authorised to work around children and vulnerable individuals, in compliance with UK safeguarding regulations.
