The study employed a desk review of primarily qualitative data and, as primary research, case study visits to four schools, all of whom had suffered fires in recent years. The focus of the study was to provide information about key issues, such as: - What are the economic impacts of school fires for schools and the wider community, including the direct and indirect costs? - What are the educational impacts of school fires for children and young people? - What are the social impacts of school fires for schools and the wider community? - What are the emotional effects of school fires for staff and pupils? - What factors appear to be associated with the impact of school fires? - What are the key factors that school staff, LA staff and fire officers take into consideration when examining fire prevention measures and mechanisms for minimising the impact of a fire in a school?
