BBC Report - Fire safety systems in schools

The BBC reports that almost half of new school buildings in England do not have fire safety systems. Interviewed as an expert on the subject, Larry Stokes from Zurich Municipal says ‘there is no official total for the number of schools with sprinklers, but fewer than 500 out of the 32,000 schools in the UK have them. Every week 20 schools are destroyed or damaged by fire’.
