Statistically 1 in 15 schools will suffer a fire. According to the DfES, 75% of all fires reported in schools are as the result of Arson.

Most Arson attacks happen out of hours, when the risk of damage the property is increased, but the likelihood of causing harm to people is low. When school hours are extended there is an increased risk that buildings could be occupied by staff and students when fire breaks out.
