Special operation this Thursday in schools in Loire-Atlantique. The prefecture, the Nantes rectorate, the diocesan directorate of Catholic education and the regional directorate of food, agriculture and forestry, are organizing an exercise to test the “special security plans” (PPMS ) establishments in the department through an exercise simulating a meteorological event.
According to the prefecture, it will also mobilize the national gendarmerie, the interdepartmental direction of the national police and the departmental fire and rescue service. Upon receipt of the alert by their authority, school principals will activate their PPMS and shelter students and staff for approximately one hour. Special safety plans (PPMS) are plans intended for educational establishments to deal with events, whether of natural origin (storm, flood, marine submersion, earthquake, landslide, etc.) , technological or specific emergency situations (intrusion by foreign people, attacks, etc.) likely to cause harm to people and property.
