Expect to see Chatham-Kent Police around St Clair College in Chatham today, but there’s no cause for concern.
As part of an ongoing communications exercise, police will be taking part in an active attacker scenario.
This week, College staff and student leaders have been reminding students to download the Alertus emergency communication app to their phones.
Officials say there will be test messaging on the Alertus app, computer screens, and classroom discussions.
There is expected to be little to no impact on the neighbouring area. However, there will be a police presence at Thames Campus.
The college is reminding all staff and students that this will be a communication exercise only, and no one is expected to run, hide or fight.
Similar scenarios were carried out at the college’s two Windsor campuses over the last few weeks.
