Introduction
While considering measures aimed at 'reduction of risk of crime and antisocial behaviour in schools and
educational institutions (schools), one of the most important tasks is risk management. High-quality risk
management when planning, implementing and using schools and educational institutions depends on
risk management system and its process risk assessment. A scope of security measures of physical
protection design and implementation should be taken in order to reduce the risk.
The causes of crime and antisocial behaviour have been researched for many years. There are many
factors that can influence the possibility of an offence being committed or not. Certain factors, for example
socio-economic conditions, are beyond the scope of this document. A common factor of all the measures
is the fact that it is difficult to limit unauthorized entry into a school building.
Most of crimes are committed because perpetrators use opportunities in schools such as easy access,
hiding places, absence of demarcation between public and private spaces, poor lighting and/or
favourable landscaping or architectural solution. By understanding the motivation of potential offenders
and counterbalancing it by risk assessment, specific physical security measures combined with real or
symbolic design elements with risk management, this document aims to assist designers, planners, estate
managers and stakeholders in crime prevention.
It helps to have a good understanding of technical recommendations, technical standards, laws and
regulations summarized in one document necessary for schools and educational institutions to
implement often neglected conceptual solutions of schools’ crime prevention in early stage planning.

1 Scope
This document gives guidance and recommendations for reducing the crime risk and antisocial behaviour
against people and property in schools through planning and design stage by preventative risk
management.
This document is usable for public and private schools and educational institutions. This document can
be used particularly but not exclusively for the security risks. Proposal and implementation of crime
prevention measures work with risk management. It is essential to consider changing social and cultural
unwished behaviours in school and educational premises with preventive risk management.
This document is not addressed to universities. However, it can be used as methodology for crime
prevention and risk management as well as to ensure the level of physical protection in universities as
well.

5 Objectives and methodology
5.1 Objectives
The objective of this document is to embrace preventive risk management possibly occurring in schools
and educational institutions providing fundamentals and design proposals for reducing risk and
antisocial behaviour.
The main goal is to provide advice and ways of implementation of security measures based on risk
management in schools and educational institutions.
5.2 Methodology and goals
Risk management is the fundament for creating a strategy of crime prevention. Figure 1 shows the
process of risk management according to ISO 31000:2018. In each box of Figure 1 you can find a
reference, the clause number of this document, which provides guidance for the context of crime
prevention in schools and educational facilities.
The risk management process consists of the following steps:

CEN/TS 14383-6:2022 (E)

Figure 1 — Process of risk management with references
to the related clauses of this document
NOTE Please find Risk Analysis for crime prevention in schools in Clause 8 of this document.
Risk assessment is the overall process of risk identification, risk analysis and risk evaluation. Risk
assessment is an important tool to comprehend risks, their sources, vulnerabilities, and their
consequences. It is necessary for the next process of security measures implementation.
Before the effective strategy is developed, all risk factors arising from the matters of security should be
taken into consideration.
A potential aggressor is motivated by an asset. The asset is characterized by certain vulnerability towards
the threat. Furthermore, the asset is protected by security measures against effects of active threats.
Selected security precautions discourage / prevent the threat from activation. In order to gain access to
the asset, the threat has a direct impact on the asset or the security precautions. For the threat impact,
activation is needed first. The activation requires resources – special conditions.

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
SIST-TS CEN/TS 14383-6:2022
CEN/TS 14383-6:2022 (E)
Not only local factors should be considered preferably in order to determine the level of risk. To identify
type of reported crimes it is recommended to make crime assessment, including information such as who
are the victims and where and when previous events occurred.
Moreover, it is important to identify factors influencing opportunities for a crime in school area.
5.3 Roles and responsibilities
Establishment of the roles and responsibilities of each participant on a building project proposal
in a stage of construction and security management.
Regardless of the project type (construction, reconstruction or adaptation and repair of buildings) it is
recommended to define organization responsible for security. Stakeholders and organisations who are
involved in crime prevention include:
— School participants (teaching staff, staff responsible for education and health, administrative and
technical staff, students and legal representatives of pupils and students);
— External partners from central and local government entities (representatives of state police, local
authorities, social workers etc.);
— External partners from private sector (e.g. service providers).
In accordance with this document, founders of schools should be responsible for school development
conception and strategy. Security conception and security policy are the most relevant documents.
Directors of schools and other educational staff of the institution must ensure processing of the security
documentation. In particular, risk assessment, together with other documents relating to the issue of
regime and organisational measures in schools. Staff in educational institutions is required to comply
with security measures, including requirement to report any non-conformity in realization of security
measures.
External partners from both, private sector and government authorities shall contribute to compliance
with security measures. External partners ensuring physical protection are required to be involved in
processing of internal documents.
6 Context and Criteria
6.1 Establishing the context
6.1.1 General
The most important processes of risk management are establishing the context and defining parameters
for risk management. Defining the external and internal context, risk criteria and perimeter is essential
for the risk management policy. Together with establishing the context, aim of risk assessment should be
formulated. Integral part of the establishing is defining risk management objectives.
6.1.2 Establishing the external context
Establishing the external context includes understanding the surrounding environment, in particular:
— Cultural, political, social and legal environment, whether national, regional or local.
— Key influences and trends of security impact on school.
— Perception and values of external stakeholders.
11

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
SIST-TS CEN/TS 14383-6:2022
CEN/TS 14383-6:2022 (E)
6.1.3 Establishing the internal context
Establishing the internal context includes, in particular:
— Information flows and decision-making processes.
— Internal stakeholders.
— Objectives and the strategies that are in the place to achieve.
— Policies and processes.
— Standards, guidelines and documents by schools.
— Structure (e.g. management, roles and responsibilities).
6.1.4 Establishing the context of the risk management process
Establishing the context of the risk management processes, particular decisions:
— Defining the goals and objectives of the risk management.
— Defining responsibility within the process and parts of risk management.
— Defining the scope of the risk management activities.
— Defining risk criteria.
— Defining the way performance and effectiveness is evaluated in the risk management.
6.2 Defining risk criteria
The above-mentioned section about establishing the context does not need to be final as other possible
parameters which could be present. Establishing the context should follow EN 31010 “Risk
management - Risk assessment techniques”.
— The nature and types of cause and consequences that should be included in risk management.
— How the likelihood of an event / incident will be defined.
— Defining consequences.
— Defining risk level.
— Criteria.
7 Risk identification
7.1 General
The initial activity to process risk evaluation is risk identification. Risk identification is the overall process
of finding, recognizing and describing risks. In this process, two tasks are conducted:
— Risk identification and categorization; and
— Asset identification and categorization.
12

---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------
SIST-TS CEN/TS 14383-6:2022
CEN/TS 14383-6:2022 (E)
7.2 Risk identification and risk categorization
Methods and techniques for risk identification can be used from EN 31010 “Risk management - Risk
assessment techniques” for performing risk analysis.
First of all, the following methods and techniques are recommended to be used in order to identify risk:
— Brainstorming.
— SWOT analyses.
— Structured interviews and questionnaires.
— Check-list.
— Historical data of incidents in schools within the local, regional, national and international context.
— Security audit and security assessment conducted by a professional.
— On a new place under construction: the professional security evaluator will assess the needed state
of security for the school and state the measures to be adopted.
NOTE On an existing school: the professional security evaluator assesses the needed state of security, the actual
security level (measures already in place), and states the measures to be adopted in order to cover the gap if it
exists.
A security audit is the verification of physical protection and conformity with accepted and adopted
security measures (technical protection, regime protection, physical guard) in accordance to the school
written documents.
A security assessment is objective evaluation of the current state and functionality of physical measures
applied and the primary instrument for the effective security system setting.
During the process of risk identification, risks (threats) and their sources which affect at least one asset
are selected. Risk identification is followed by risk categorization.
The objective of this document is to protect people and property and therefore all possible crimes and
antisocial behaviour at schools are to be considered. Individual events vary among day time. Vandalism,
aggression with or without weapon, abusive language, threats, physical violence occur mostly during
hours of occupancy. Some of them could happen outside the area on in close spaces, near entrances or on
access routes for both students and staff. Crimes connected with property are in particular: burglary and
arson. Extreme damages to property are mostly conducted out of hours when schools are closed.
Schools technical and personnel measures should be adjusted to protect against crime in accordance with
resulting risk assessment. Risks can be categorized for instance by their negative consequences.
Risks related to crimes against persons should be categorized as follows:
a) Insults, verbal offences, abusive language.
b) Bullying.
c) Racketeering or attempt to racketeering, money theft.
d) Sexual physical violence.
e) Armed physical violence.

Introduction
While considering measures aimed at 'reduction of risk of crime and antisocial behaviour in
schools and educational institutions (schools), one of the most important tasks is risk
management. High-quality risk management when planning, implementing and using schools and
educational institutions depends on risk management system and its process risk assessment. A
scope of security measures of physical protection design and implementation shall be taken in
order to reduce the risk.
The causes of crime and antisocial behaviour have been researched for many years. There are
many factors that can influence the possibility of an offence being committed or not. Certain
factors, for example socio-economic conditions, are beyond the scope of this standard. A common
factor of all the measures is the fact that it is difficult to limit unauthorized entry into a school
building.
Most of crimes are committed because perpetrators use opportunities in schools such as easy
access, hiding places, absence of demarcation between public and private spaces, poor lighting
and/or favourable landscaping or architectural solution. By understanding the motivation of
potential offenders and counterbalancing it by risk assessment, specific physical security
measures combined with real or symbolic design elements with risk management, this document
aims to assist designers, planners, estate managers and stakeholders in crime prevention.
It helps to have a good understanding of technical recommendations, technical standards, laws
and regulations summarized in one document necessary for schools and educational institutions
to implement often neglected conceptual solutions of schools crime prevention in early stage
planning.

1 Scope
This document gives guidance and recommendations for reducing the crime risk and antisocial
behaviour against people and property in schools through planning and design stage by
preventative risk management.
This document is usable for public and private schools and educational institutions. This
document can be used particularly but not exclusively for the security risks. Proposal and
implementation of crime prevention measures work with risk management. It is essential to
consider changing social and cultural unwished behaviours in school and educational premises
with preventive risk management.
This document is not addressed to universities. However, it can be used as methodology for crime
prevention and risk management as well as to ensure the level of physical protection in
universities as well.

5 Objectives and methodology
5.1 Objectives
The objective of this Technical Specification is to embrace preventive risk management possibly
occurring in schools and educational institutions providing fundamentals and design proposals
for reducing risk and antisocial behaviour.
The main goal is to provide advice and ways of implementation of security measures based on risk
management in schools and educational institutions.
5.2 Methodology and goals
Risk management is the fundament for creating a strategy of crime prevention. Figure 1 shows
the process of risk management according to ISO 31000:2018. In each box of Figure 1 you can find
a reference, the clause number of this Technical Specification, which provides guidance for the
context of crime prevention in schools and educational facilities.

The risk management process consists of the following steps:

Figure 1 — Process of risk management with references
to the related clauses of this Technical Specification
EXAMPLE Please find Risk Analysis for Crime prevention in schools is Clause 8 of this Technical
Specification.
Risk assessment is the overall process of risk identification, risk analysis and risk evaluation. Risk
assessment is an important tool to comprehend risks, their sources, vulnerabilities, and their
consequences. It is necessary for the next process of security measures implementation.
Before the effective strategy is developed, all risk factors arising from the matters of security
should be taken into consideration.
A potential aggressor is motivated by an asset. The asset is characterized by certain vulnerability
towards the threat. Furthermore, the asset is protected by security measures against effects of
active threats. Selected security precautions discourage / prevent the threat from activation. In
order to gain access to the asset, the threat has a direct impact on the asset or the security

kSIST-TS FprCEN/TS 14383-6:2022
FprCEN/TS 14383-6:2022 (E)
precautions. For the threat impact, activation is needed first. The activation requires resources –
special conditions.
Not only local factors should be considered preferably in order to determine the level of risk. To
identify type of reported crimes it is recommended to make crime assessment, including
information such as who are the victims and where and when previous events occurred.
Moreover, it is important to identify factors influencing opportunities for a crime in school area.
5.3 Roles and responsibilities
Establishment of the roles and responsibilities of each participant on a building project proposal
in a stage of construction and security management.
Regardless of the project type (construction, reconstruction or adaptation and repair of buildings)
it is recommended to define organization responsible for security. Stakeholders and organisations
who are involved in crime prevention include:
— School participants (teaching staff, staff responsible for education and health, administrative
and technical staff, students and legal representatives of pupils and students);
— External partners from central and local government entities (representatives of state police,
local authorities, social workers etc.);
— External partners from private sector (e.g. service providers).
In accordance with this Technical Specification, founders of schools should be responsible for
school development conception and strategy. Security conception and security policy are the most
relevant documents.
Directors of schools and other educational staff of the institution must ensure processing of the
security documentation. In particular, risk assessment, together with other documents relating to
the issue of regime and organisational measures in schools. Staff in educational institutions is
required to comply with security measures, including requirement to report any non-conformity
in realization of security measures.
External partners from both, private sector and government authorities shall contribute to
compliance with security measures. External partners ensuring physical protection are required
to be involved in processing of internal documents.
6 Context and Criteria
6.1 Establishing the context
6.1.1 General
The most important processes of risk management are establishing the context and defining
parameters for risk management. Defining the external and internal context, risk criteria and
perimeter is essential for the risk management policy. Together with establishing the context, aim
of risk assessment should be formulated. Integral part of the establishing is defining risk
management objectives.
6.1.2 Establishing the external context
Establishing the external context includes understanding the surrounding environment, in
particular:
— Cultural, political, social and legal environment, whether national, regional or local.
11

---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
kSIST-TS FprCEN/TS 14383-6:2022
FprCEN/TS 14383-6:2022 (E)
— Key influences and trends of security impact on school.
— Perception and values of external stakeholders.
6.1.3 Establishing the internal context
Establishing the internal context includes, in particular:
— Information flows and decision-making processes.
— Internal stakeholders.
— Objectives and the strategies that are in the place to achieve.
— Policies and processes.
— Standards, guidelines and documents by schools.
— Structure (e.g. management, roles, and responsibilities).
6.1.4 Establishing the context of the risk management process
Establishing the context of the risk management processes, particular decisions:
— Defining the goals and objectives of the risk management.
— Defining responsibility within the process and parts of risk management.
— Defining the scope of the risk management activities.
— Defining risk criteria.
— Defining the way performance and effectiveness is evaluated in the risk management.
6.2 Defining risk criteria
The above mentioned section about establishing the context does not need to be final as other
possible parameters which could be present. Establishing the context should follow EN 31010
“Risk management - Risk assessment techniques”.
— The nature and types of cause and consequences that should be included in risk management.
— How the likelihood of an event / incident will be defined.
— Defining consequences.
— Defining risk level.
— Criteria.
7 Risk identification
7.1 General
The initial activity to process risk evaluation is risk identification. Risk identification is the overall
process of finding, recognizing and describing risks. In this process, two tasks are conducted – risk
identification and categorization and – asset identification and categorization.

kSIST-TS FprCEN/TS 14383-6:2022
FprCEN/TS 14383-6:2022 (E)
7.2 Risk identification and risk categorization
Methods and techniques for risk identification can be used from EN 31010 “Risk management -
Risk assessment techniques” for performing risk analysis.
First of all, the following methods and techniques are recommended to be used in order to identify
risk:
— Brainstorming.
— SWOT analyses.
— Structured interviews and questionnaires.
— Check-list.
— Historical data of incidents in schools within the local, regional, national and international
context.
— Security audit and security assessment conducted by a professional.
— On a new place under construction: the professional security evaluator will assess the needed
state of security for the school and state the measures to be adopted.
NOTE On an existing school: the professional security evaluator assesses the needed state of security,
the actual security level (measures already in place), and states the measures to be adopted in order to
cover the gap if it exists.
A security audit is the verification of physical protection and conformity with accepted and
adopted security measures (technical protection, regime protection, physical guard) in
accordance to the school written documents.
A security assessment is objective evaluation of the current state and functionality of physical
measures applied and the primary instrument for the effective security system setting.
During the process of risk identification, risks (threats) and their sources which affect at least one
asset are selected. Risk identification is followed by risk categorization.
The objective of this Technical Specification is to protect people and property and therefore all
possible crimes and antisocial behaviour at schools are to be considered. Individual events vary
among day time. Vandalism, aggression with or without weapon, abusive language, threats,
physical violence occur mostly during hours of occupancy. Some of them could happen outside
the area on in close spaces, near entrances or on access routes for both students and staff. Crimes
connected with property are in particular: burglary and arson. Extreme damages to property are
mostly conducted out of hours when schools are closed.
Schools technical and personnel measures should be adjusted to protect against crime in
accordance with resulting risk assessment. Risks can be categorized for instance by their negative
consequences.
Risks related to crimes against persons should be categorized as follows:
a) Insults, verbal offences, abusive language
b) Bullying.
c) Racketeering or attempt to racketeering, money theft.
d) Sexual physical violence.

e) Armed physical violence.
f) Physical violence with common object used as weapon.
g) Physical violence without weapon.
h) Use explosives or threat with explosives.
i) Hostages' situations.
j) Threat with hazardous substances.
k) Kidnapping, attempt to kidnapping.
Risks related to crimes against property should be categorized as follows:
I. Theft (and attempt to theft)
• Trading stolen goods.
• Break-in, pick a lock.
• Robbery.
• Armed robbery.
II. Destruction and damaging
• Graffiti.
• Throwing stones or other objects
• Vandalism to buildings
• Vandalism to security systems
• Vandalism to other devices than security systems
• Vandalism to personal property
• Arson and attempt to arson.
III. Other

List of the risks is not complete as there are also other important specific conditions at some
schools. It is also necessary to consider risk source dynamics and specifications capable to put
protected interests at risk. Crime mapping from the given location or a similar location can be
used for the process of frisk identification and categorization.
7.3 Assets identification and categorization
Asset identification means establishment of all assets located within the risk management. In
