About this listen
The Swiss Cheese Model: A Layered Approach to School Safety
In this episode of Safe and Innovative Schools, Dr. Joe introduces and explains the Swiss Cheese approach to school safety. Dr. Joe discusses his diverse background in innovation, technology, and physical safety, and defines the concepts of safety and security. Using the metaphor of Swiss Cheese slices, he illustrates how multiple layers of security measures, despite individual weaknesses, can collectively create a more secure school environment. Dr. Joe emphasizes the importance of viewing these measures as an interoperable system rather than isolated components, and concludes by encouraging continuous improvement of safety practices to protect students and enhance learning environments.
