Schools and academies across Hull can be safe in the knowledge that pupils and premises are being protected by Shield Security’s dedicated staff as part of a contract with national Facilities Management firm Robertson Facilities Management.

Our teams are managing CCTV and alarms, both security and fire, at seven city academies which have been built under the Building Schools For the Future programme.

These are Archbishop Sentamu, Andrew Marvel, Thomas Ferens, Kingswood, Aspire, Oakfield and Winifred Holtby.

James Moore, business development manager at Shield Security, said: “We’re delighted to be working with an award-winning Facilities Management company such as Robertson Facilities Management.

“Given its reputation and standing, it is a real coup for Shield to be trusted Robertson to provide all security and alarms cover for these schools, and of course it is extra pleasing given our base in East Yorkshire, and our long-standing commitment to supporting educational establishments, to be providing this service locally.”
