SECURITY FORMATION STUDENTS OF THE FIRST YEAR

Students of our school are required to learn an Evacuation Plan since the first year. More specifically, they need to locate where the emergency exits and collection points are. Furthermore, each student should memorize the most appropriate security route, according to the location of his classroom or laboratory in the building, in order to guarantee the quickest evacuation possible.

PROCEDURES FOR LABORATORIES

Students attending the first year also need to undertake the so-called "Formation/information" course, in order to learn the proper security procedures and the correct behavior when working in the Physic and Chemistry's Laboratories.

WORKING EXPERIENCES (OUTSIDE THE SCHOOL)

At the third year of school, when students begin some of the required working experiences, they are asked to undertake a four-hours security course, alongside an additional four-hours course (the so-called "Low Risk") in order to teach them the correct behavior to maintain in the work places.

TEACHERS AND "ATA" STAFF FORMATION

"Ata" is an acronym which stands for "Administrative, Technical and Auxiliary" Stuff. Alongside teachers, these people are required to undertake two four-hours security courses ("Medium Risk") in order to manage eventual emergency situations which may occur in the school. (According to decree 81)

"BLS COURSE"

"BLS" stands for "Basic Life Support". It is a first aid course with the purpose of teaching students of the first year to manage an eventual case of heartbreak. More specifically, it coaches to:

• Recognize a heartbreak by his signs and symptoms

• Call the emergency number and communicate with the operators

• Accomplish the operators'instructions while waiting for the aids to come

Students who complete the course are given a certification and become "laic operators", which means that they are able to succurr, possibly in the first ten minutes. As a matter of fact, the first ten minutes can be determinant in saving a life, since aids usually don't arrive in this timelapse and it's important to maintain the victim of a hearth attack alive while wainting for them.
