A quantitative research design was applied in the study. A total of 760 for both teachers and principals were chosen as a research sample through proportional and simple sampling technique.

It was found that there was significant, positive and strong relationship among physical security outfit, ICT surveillance, school fencing, security training and goal achievement where (r = .661, P = < .000, r = .663, P = < .000, r = .673, P = < .000, r = 657, P = < .000). In conclusion, physical security outfit, ICT surveillance, school fencing, security training serve as the major determinant of safe school measure which should be integrated for the realization of goal achievement.
