Secure Schools Program
The Secure Schools Program was announced in 2007 and committed $20 million to assist at-risk government and non-government schools to meet their particular security needs. Funding is awarded on the basis of assessed security needs.
The main types of projects funded under the program involve security related infrastructure such as closed circuit television systems, fencing, lighting and improving window security. The program does not provide for security measures to deal with student bullying, harassment, student violence and child protection, or with opportunistic acts of vandalism or property crime in schools.
The program has a targeted application process with State and Territory governments nominating schools for consideration for funding. Only those schools invited to apply for funding are eligible to receive funding under the program.
As at 22 April 2010 $19.856 million has been announced to be shared amongst 69 government and non-government schools across Australia.
