    The Fire Assembly Point is where you're supposed to go if the building has to be evacuated, so they can count heads and see if anyone's missing. One surrounded by wood isn't a good idea - but probably better than a place I worked at decades ago: it occupied two buildings separated by a narrow alley, and the assembly point was "across the road" from whichever building had been evacuated, where a collapsing building would certainly come down on people.

    2:25 the primary school I went to had a field and a massive gate at the end to stop people from leaving. The gate wasn’t too wide but there were trees on either side so no one could get out anyway. A few years after I left I walked past the entrance to that field where the gate was and for some reason they had decided to cut the trees down, making the gate completely useless because people could walk around it and the tree stumps that had been left behind
