| Abstract | A study examined what further education colleges in Britain were doing about security and what they planned for the future. A literature search found that a PEST (Political/legal, Economic, Sociocultural, and Technological) analysis was one way to examine the differential impact of external influences. A PEST analysis offered a strategy for security that considered college environment, strategic capability, organizational culture, and stakeholders' expectations. The research was undertaken to help Barking College in greater London plan an organizational strategy on security. Questionnaires were sent to 225 colleges in southeast England, Greater London, and Essex; the response was 50 percent. Focus was on client requirements, organizational requirements, and security measures. Less formal "opportunistic interview" sessions were used to discover staff concerns. All 109 colleges taking part said they had experienced theft. Other security breaches mentioned were internal fights, muggings, drug dealing, physical attacks, vandalism, arson, aggression, and a bomb scare. One-third of colleges had had staff physically attacked; one-half had had students attacked. Most medium-to-large colleges employed specialist security staff. Two of five colleges had some form of restricted access. Implications of findings were organized into three categories: those pertaining to premises, procedures, and training. (Appendixes contain 14 references, instruments, and a map of location of colleges responding to questionnaire.) (YLB) |
