ABU DHABI: The Abu Dhabi Educational Council (Adec) completed the installation of about 9,300 surveillance cameras in 137 schools across the emirate so far. The Information and Communication Technology Department at Adec is still following up installation of other 7,200 camera in 118 public schools. This is scheduled to be completed during the current academic year. This comes as part of a project aims to support security and safety, and to control the conduct of students. The total number of surveillance cameras that have been installed within the project reached 16,500 cameras in 255 schools in the emirate

The IT department is following the installation of the cameras in the rest of the schools, according to specific stages. The first phase was carried out last year in high schools and mix-schools. These schools are in an immediate need of surveillance cameras, to uphold security efforts and safety by deterring any unwelcome behaviour from students. Meanwhile, the next phase will include the primary and preparatory schools, and kindergartens.

The cameras were installed in the yards, walkways, entrances and exits of the schools. The recordings are kept for a period of six months only.

This step gained a big welcome from the educational field, as it comes within measures considered to strengthen the stability of the schools and procedures of security, safety and follow-up of students’ behaviours.
