Crime Prevention through Environmental Design
Draper, Rick; Cadzow, Emma
PEB Exchange, Article 13 Oct 2004
Applying CPTED (Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design) strategies to schools can significantly contribute to a safer learning environment by influencing the behaviour of students and visitors. CPTED has three overlapping primary concepts that are intended to reduce opportunities for crime as well as fear of crime: access control, surveillance and territorial reinforcement. (Contains 1 table and 6 footnotes.)
