Safety Awareness by Teachers involves educating children on how to stay safe in different environments—at school, home, and in public. Teachers play a key role in guiding students through safety habits, helping them understand risks, and encouraging responsible behavior.
Key Areas Teachers Should Cover:
- Stranger Safety
Teach children to never go anywhere with a stranger.
Practice how to respond: Say NO, Run Away, and Tell an Adult.
2.Body Safety
Explain body autonomy in age-appropriate terms.
Teach the concept of safe and unsafe touch.
Use the “No–Go–Tell” strategy to help children respond to unsafe situations.
3.Identifying Trusted Adults
Help children make a list of safe people they can turn to (parents, teachers, school staff).
Teach the importance of always informing a trusted adult if something feels wrong.
4.Safety at School and Outdoors
Reinforce rules like staying with the group during outings.
Teach children to report hazards or injuries immediately.
Explain basic safety drills (fire, earthquake, lockdown, etc.).
5.Emergency Preparedness
Teach children how to dial emergency numbers.
Help them memorize key information: home address and parents’ phone numbers.
Practice simple role-plays for emergency situations.
Goal of Teacher-Led Safety Awareness:
To create a safe learning environment where children feel confident, informed, and empowered to protect themselves and seek help when needed.
