CHAPTER1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS SETTING
Introduction
Video Surveillance System is now widely used across the world. Similar
difficulties are encountered when trying to ascertain the number of schools that
currently have Video Surveillance System. It is harder still to gather details on the
specific of the system; the number of cameras, their technological sophistication, the
motivations for implementation, and details about how the system is operated.
(Emmeline Taylor, “I Spy with My Little Eye: The Use of Video Surveillance System
in Schools and the Impact on Privacy.”) The use of Video Surveillance System as a
tool to prevent incident in schools continues to expand, in particular among local
governments (Iris Ltd. 2005). Indeed, its popularity and use is not restricted solely to
preventing crime. Video Surveillance System has been implemented for a range of
purposes that includes use as an access control measure, as a method to reduce fear of
crime and improve perceptions of community safety, to potentially detect crime and
also to be an evidentiary tool (Allard, Wortley& Stewart 2006).
When it comes to school security, video surveillance is the first line of
defense. With modern security cameras, a school can be more proactive about campus
safety and detect suspicious activity in real time. Video surveillance improves
emergency response in schools and shows that the school values safety. Video
Surveillance System has a great purpose for individual, specially to the students in
school, to provide information for action. It is an excellent deterrent against incidents

occurring during school hours, whether that is bullying, unauthorized access, or
criminal activity such as vandalism and many more.
Corpuz (2011) Installation of Surveillance Camera Systems as a way to
determine crimes or criminal acts has gained traction in recent years. When video
surveillance is visible, most people will think twice before committing crime because
the possibility of facing negative legal repercussions increases dramatically.

Background of the study
Bennett & Gelsthorpe, 2010, stated that a common goal of most CCTV
systems has been the prevention of crime and disorder through deterrence. Claims are
also made that CCTV provides public reassurance and therefore reduces fear of crime,
which may, in turn, increase the use of public spaces.
As nations develop and their economies grow bigger, social problems also
intensify. One great concern deals with peace and order as well as safety and security
of the people. The government of different nations have launched various innovations
on how to prevent crimes. One of these innovations is the use of CCTV. The
surveillance prevents crime to high levels due to various factors. First, the cameras
provide evidence of crime hence it deems easier to track the criminals (Murphy, 1999
p. 396).
In Schools, specifically, as public educational institutions, bear a primary
responsibility to ensure the ongoing safety of their students and teachers while on
school grounds. CCTV camera surveillance systems are increasingly being used in
schools to maintain safety and security, allowing school and faculty personnel to
focus on their responsibilities and preventing criminal activity on the premises.
School districts are expected to provide students, parents, teachers, and staff with a
safe and secure learning environment. This necessitates keeping weapons, violence,
and disruptive behavior out of schools. With bullying on the rise and gun violence on
the rise, you cannot assume your school's current security system is adequate. The use
3

of CCTV as a tool to prevent incident in schools continues to expand, in particular
among local governments (Iris Ltd. 2005). Indeed, its popularity and use is not
restricted solely to preventing crime. CCTV has been implemented for a range of
purposes that includes use as an access control measure, as a method to reduce fear of
crime and improve perceptions of community safety, to potentially detect crime and
also to be an evidentiary tool (Allard, Wortley& Stewart 2006).
CCTV cameras should be placed in designated viewing areas such as
entrances, hallways, stairwells, or even classroom environments to provide the best
possible view of what the camera's primary focus should be. It should be noted that all
video surveillance will remain in a fixed position, providing a focused view of what is
most important. Video surveillance cameras should only be used as a backup security
measure on school campuses.
Specifically, this study aims to investigate how beneficial and effective the
installation of video surveillance to the students, facilitators, and to North Eastern
Mindanao State University Cantilan Campus itself.

Theoretical Framework
This research is anchored on the theory of Clarke's CCTV and Situational
Crime Prevention Theory with supporting theory namely, Rational choice theory and
Routine activity theory.
The central concepts of the situational crime prevention theory are deeply
rooted in and influenced by other theories, including the rational choice theory, the
routine activity theory, and the crime pattern theory (Clarke and Felson, 1993; Felson,
1994). At the heart of every crime is a rational decision designed to weigh the risks
and benefits for the offender, and in the absence of effective controls, offenders will
focus on suitable targets. Routine activity theory relies on the occurrence of three key
characteristics: a motivated offender, a suitable victim, and a lack of control.
Prevention techniques are thus aimed at decreasing the number of suitable victims and
increasing the presence of control and guardian at all times.
CCTV surveillance is grounded in the criminology theory that suggests
potential offenders are less likely to commit crime if they believe they are being
watched or have a greater risk of being apprehended. This is also known as the
rational choice theory (La Vigne et al. 2011). CCTV is also grounded in situational
crime prevention strategy, which argues that opportunities to offend can be reduced
by altering a variety of mechanisms such as increasing the risk of an offender being
apprehended, increasing the effort to commit the crime, decreasing rewards from
5
Telefax No. 086-212-5132
www.sdssu.edu.ph
crime commission, and reducing provocations that give rise to criminal opportunities
(La Vigne et al. 2011). This means that the offender must be aware of the added
surveillance for it to achieve its desired effect
Furthermore, proponents of public surveillance systems also believe that such
systems have the ability to increase perceptions of safety among citizens, as well as
encourage citizens to use public spaces they know are guarded by surveillance (La
Vigne et al. 2011). Through increasing the number of citizens using public spaces,
more individuals can potentially serve as witnesses to crimes, presenting the
possibility of greater crime reduction.
As described by Cornish and Clarke (2003), CCTV is a form of “formal
surveillance,” meaning that not only does CCTV have the ability to take the place of
police or security officers but CCTV can also enhance officers’ capabilities (Welsh
and Farrington 2008). In addition to functioning as a deterrent, cameras can alert
police of crimes as they happen, which can enable officers to respond quickly and
efficiently (La Vigne et al. 2011). On a larger scale, the use of CCTV also presents
the possibility of aiding in the criminal justice system, as video footage of a crime
may help in investigations and prosecutions (La Vigne et al. 2011).

CHAPTER 2: Review of Related Literature and Studies
This Chapter contains a variety of local and foreign literature and studies that
provide direct support for the research study. This particular research study
summarizes the relevant readings conducted by the researcher that are relevant to the
current research study. Foreign and local literature and studies would be used as a
guide and source of support in the interpretation and analysis of the data gathered.
FOREIGN LITERATURE
In May 22, 2009, Mr. Andy J. Thompson wrote an article entitled “CCTV
Security Cameras they help fight crime” where stated that “The UK has more CCTV
camera coverage than any other country. Recent study examined the effectiveness of
UK security cameras as it pertains to crime prevention. CCTV is clearly an effective
deterrence to criminal activity.”
It was also stated that CCTV video is often used in police investigations and
the writer believes that most people are convinced of the effectiveness of video
surveillance and may even feel a certain amount of comfort in knowing that it adds to
their sense of personal safety and they understand that their chances of being a victim
of crime are reduced when they find themselves in an area monitored with CCTV
cameras.
13
Telefax No. 086-212-5132
www.sdssu.edu.ph
Initial justification for CCTV surveillance in schools was directed towards the
need to protect students, staff and property from external threats such as vandalism
and intruders. Norris and Armstrong (1999) discuss the original intentions of the
implementation of CCTV surveillance in schools as being for purposes of protection
and security. Surveillance equipment was focused on school access and perimeter
areas, with the aim of preventing unwelcome intruders.
According to Rodriguez (2013) CCTV or Closed Circuit Cameras are video
cameras used for the purposed of observing an area. They are often connected to a
recording device, IP network, and/or watched by a security personnel/law
enforcement officer. Video Surveillance Systems consist of cameras placed in areas
where they can monitor activity as it takes place.
Research conducted by Hope (2009a) has revealed a range of additional
justifications for the change from external to internal observation practices.
Justifications for the use of CCTV surveillance and the aims of implementation
include: to deter inappropriate social behaviour (bullying, loitering,); to reduce theft
and property damage attributed to students; to increase the areas of observation
without increasing . According to Schmode (2014) said HD video surveillance and
access control in schools are “key security measures” and that they could be used to
keep out intruders, reduce bullying, and even ensure higher enrollment. One
university in Sydney was able to reduce crime by 25 percent year-over-year following
the installation of a new security system, he said.

According to Bautista (2012), the Quezon City government is mulling
theinstallation of CCTV (closed-circuit television) cameras in public schools to
improvethe security measures for more than 400,000 public school students.
“Surveillancecameras are needed to make up for the lack of security personnel in
Quezon City’spublic schools,” said City Mayor Herbert Bautista in a recent meeting
on child safetyin public places. In a statement, Bautista said the city government
remains serious in its anti-crime campaign especially human trafficking and
kidnapping.
Ex-officio board member Clarito Demaala IV said the resolution is
specifically addressed to Palawan Governor Jose Alvarez for inclusion in the
education component of the Infrastructure, Health, Education, Livelihood, and
Protection of the Environment (IHELP) development agenda. He said equipping all
public schools in the province with closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras will
help ensure the safety of students while they are away from their homes.
In his resolution, Demaala said CCTV cameras are aimed at preventing
crimes that might be committed against students, teachers, and the schools, where
important learning facilities should be taken care of. “If something bad happens to
them, CCTV cameras can help determine what happened and who the responsible
individuals are. If an incident happens within the school premises, CCTV footages
can be readily secured to tell the story. It will also help authorities solve traffic
accidents, bullying, and fighting among students,” said by Demaala.

REVIEW RELATED STUDIES

Foreign Studies
According to the study of Aundreia Cameron, Elke Kolodinski,Heather May and
Nicholas Williams on May 5 e20d8d Measuringthe Effects of Video Surveillance on
Crime in Los Asgated thatlocal program characteristics likely affect the overall
success of CCTVprograms-which are often very different from one etharreducingand

In relation to the present study, the researchers believe that CCTVwill be effective in
conducting crime investigations if real-time monitoringwill be follow.
In the study Mlark McComlLfbrary Securitypublished in SanFrancisco on
2004 stated that Video surveillance and closed-circuittelevision(CCTV) systems serve
as a way to monitor and record security,deter crime, and ensure safêty.
Local Studies
Senate Bill 1073, also referred to as the “Security Camera Evidence
Preservation Act,” provides for a mechanism where videos recorded from CCTV
cameras are preserved and duly authenticated to aid law enforcement agencies in their
campaign against crimes.
16
Telefax No. 086-212-5132
www.sdssu.edu.ph
De Lima cited events when security cameras have been very crucial in
recording criminal activities, including instances when an employee of the Bureau of
Customs (BuCor) was caught by the CCTV camera accepting bribe money and when
a woman was captured by the security camera being shot dead by her robber, in 2016.
In the study “Proposed Class Monitoring System using SurveillanceCamera for CAS,
ESC” by Raymart A. Aborque, Rodolfo B. Delorino,Joemary A. Olanka, Mark Bryan
F. Ramirez and Ron Nikko T.Socorrostated that due to increased terrors and crimes,
the use of the videosurveillance camera system is increasing and it has been operated
forpublic interest such as prevention of crimes and fly-tipping by the policeand local
government, but private information such as faces or behaviorpatterns can be recorded
in CCTV.
When the recorded video data isexposed, it may cause an invasion to privacy
and erimes. In relation to the present study, the researchers believe that CCTV has its
negative impact in regards of privacy exposure. The national privacy commission
reminded that the cameras should not be placed in spaces with "heightened
expectation of privacy" such as toilets, fitting rooms and breastfeeding rooms.
