Martyn's Law Communication Solutions for Schools

Keeping students, staff and visitors safe with reliable communication technology that helps your school respond in seconds during an emergency.

Martyn’s Law the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 received Royal Assent in April 2025 and places new legal duties on schools and educational premises to have effective safety and communication procedures in place. Every education setting is treated as standard-tier, so the requirements apply to primaries, secondaries, colleges and universities alike.

With a 24-month implementation period, the duties come into force from 2027 which means now is the time to prepare. At CFONE, we install reliable, compliant communication systems that let your school raise the alarm, coordinate a response and keep everyone connected when it matters most.

The Act names four public-protection procedures: evacuation, invacuation, lockdown and communication — all underpinned by the systems below.
