We had an intermittent problem with pupils activating the break glass call points in our automatic fire systems. Each alarm led to attendance by the local fire brigade but also led to considerable inconvenience, as all of the buildings in the school complex had to be evacuated every time an alarm was given. Since Derbyshire County Council Technical Services Department installed the Stoppers, not a single false fire alarm has been recorded. Sue Kettle Buxton Community School
