Fire Evacuation
Why School Needs Evacuation Plans?
The school evacuation plan is paper documentation showing evacuation routes on the building structure. Preparation in advance can prevent injuries from emergencies or disasters. Schools should prepare students well by letting them get familiar with the school escape routes so that when an accident occurs, they will know where to go and what actions to take.
