Among the list of 24 activities were several physical protection measures: 1) Constructing boundary walls around the school up to 8 feet in height; 2) Fencing the boundary wall with razor wire up to another 2 feet in height; 3) Using a single entry/exit gate generally and using a second gate only in exceptional circumstances or as an emergency exit; 4) Erecting concrete barriers at the entry/exit gate; 5) Installing a walk-through gate and using metal detectors for physical search of the entrants and using bottom view mirrors for checking vehicles; and 6) Ensuring zigzag entry into premises by deploying concrete barriers.
