Would anyone have any feedback on the effectiveness of DeafAlerter system in
schools, or other systems tried and tested in school environments to serve the
needs of staff, pupils and visitors. Also value of strobes in fire detection
systems in a school setting.
Thanks in anticipation.

>This guidance covers all schools maintained by local education

>fire does occur, how to reduce the risk of it spreading. Because a fire
>can have a serious impact on children's education, due to disruption and
>loss of course work, it gives advice on property protection as well as
>on life safety issues.
