When students feel safe, they are better able to focus on learning, which in turn leads
to increased academic achievement. Students who feel unsafe or threatened at school
have a harder time academically, face disciplinary issues and have a high probability
of dropping out of school.
1. The school should facilitate provisions for safe drinking water facilities, separate
toilet facilities for both boys and girls, sanitation, first aid provisions etc.
2. Buildings should be designed to be earthquake resilient and fitted with basic fire
safety equipment.
4. Structural safety measures, safety precautions with regard to open wells, water
tanks, septic tanks, corridors, side areas, and ramps should be taken into account.
5. CCTV cameras at all vulnerable areas and strategic locations should be installed
within the school to limit the entry of outsiders within its premises and ensure that a
child's day-to-day life in school is constantly being monitored and recorded
6. Schools ensure that the non-teaching staff such as bus drivers, conductors, peons
and other support staff be employed only from authorised agencies and that proper
records be maintained.
