"I believe the case for sprinklers is stronger now than at any time. It is a worrying fact that schools are still experiencing fires at an alarming rate. Year on year, when the statistics are published for major fires, educational establishments are always at the top of the list."

Tom Carroll QFSM MIFireE, President, Chief Fire Officers Association

Harbour School in Cambridgeshire is a community special school for day and residential pupils. It is a Grade II listed building that proved unsuitable for a number of fire protection methods. Sprinklers with ‘fast response’ heads were installed, and the project was designed for both the current building and a potential extension in the future. The work was carried out in school holidays and over weekends to minimise disruption. The installation cost £100,000.
