Safety First - Creating a Safe Environment at School

"Every Adventist teacher and educational administrator must implement strategies that will enhance their students’ safety at school. Adventist schools must provide a safe and appropriate environment for students to grow and develop into active members of God’s church and society. This involves providing proper supervision and making sure teachers are trained to offer lesson plans that take into account all aspects of safety, including facilities and environmental conditions. Schools should also provide safety gear for physical education and sports, and offer extracurricular opportunities with appropriate training and equipment. By stressing 'safety first,' many injuries can be avoided, and even when they do occur, their severity will be significantly reduced." A list of helpful resources for physical education and health is included.
