Fire evacuation
There are two different stages to the fire alarms.
- Standby alarm – a fire detector outside the immediate vicinity has been activated. You are in no immediate danger and so there is no need as yet, to evacuate the building. If you are in bed, it is sensible to get up, get dressed and be ready to evacuate.
- Full alarm – you must evacuate the building and assemble outside.
In the event of a fire alarm being raised you should evacuate promptly to the assembly point in All Saints Park.
Failure to evacuate your accommodation building when instructed may result in disciplinary action being taken against you under the student code of conduct.
If widespread evacuation is necessary, security will instruct you where to move.
If you hear the fire alarm sound in another flat, please inform security immediately. You are safe to remain in your own flat but may evacuate if you wish.
