Fire can cause severe damages to any premises within no time, the incidents also occur when you least expect it. Nonetheless, schools, in particular, are at significant risk. Such situations make it critical for academic environments and schools where there are flammable materials, fire hazards, and several vulnerable children unaware of what to do when and if a fire incident occurs. Unawareness can make evacuation procedures rather tricky.

CSB is committed to the safety of students and staff. It’s crucial to establish a clear, step-by-step evacuation graph that explains staff, faculty members, and most importantly, students as to what exactly everyone should do in the event of a fire. We conducted a fire drill to familiarize and reinforce proper evacuation routes and practices.

Why Is Fire Drill Important?

• Despite their size, all schools need to regularly carry out fire drills, as it will guide students and teachers during a fire.
• It will also help them thoroughly learn and understand the school building’s escape routes and the directions they should follow to make sure that everyone gets out quickly out of the fire area.
• Fire drills also help little children who are still growing become aware of what fire safety is all about and the dos and don’ts when there is a fire.
• Fire drills reduce uncontrollable and unmanageable behavior, confusion, and panic among people involved in the fire incident.
• It will also help teachers and staff members stay up to date with their roles throughout such emergencies.

Therefore, schools should carry out regular fire drills; practicing so will help check if the plan truly works and publicize everyone in the school, especially students in particular, with the whole evacuation process.
