It's heartening to know that Rickmansworth School had prepared for an emergency
But perhaps the most important thing was that the school had a plan in place as part of a lockdown policy.
When police contacted the school, it put a drill that had been rehearsed with staff into operation and staff immediately did what they could to keep children safe. Afterwards, the school confirmed what had happened in an email to parents, and added that it is likely to hold more such drills in case of future incidents.
Most of us grumble when there is a fire drill at work, but no parent would grumble about schools holding drills to keep their children safe. This turned out to be a minor incident, but the system worked. That's not terrifying, that's reassuring.
