Stephanie Thompson is the principal of Beach Haven Primary School in Auckland, New Zealand. She has been an advocate for improved security measures in schools to combat vandalism, emphasizing the importance of preventative strategies. Under her leadership, Beach Haven Primary has successfully implemented fencing, CCTV, and other deterrents that have significantly reduced vandalism incidents. Thompson believes that funding for such measures should be more accessible to all schools, arguing that investing in prevention is more cost-effective than addressing damage after it occurs.
