Ministry of the Interior and Safety Designates 'Safe-TV' as Essential Content for School Safety Education

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The safety-specialized website operated by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety, ‘Safe-TV,’ received a commendation for meritorious service from the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Education for producing weekly ‘School Safety Newsletter’ safety education videos throughout the past year.

According to the Ministry of the Interior and Safety on the 7th, ‘Safe-TV’ produced and distributed a total of 42 videos from February to the end of last year, discovering necessary safety rules for students as non-face-to-face school classes became common due to COVID-19. The educational videos were produced weekly covering seasonal safety rules such as ▲fine dust ▲heat waves ▲water play safety ▲cold waves, as well as school life topics including ▲school violence ▲laboratory safety ▲first aid methods.

The ‘School Safety Newsletter’ was promoted in collaboration with the Ministry of Education to be practically utilized in school settings. The selection of topics was discussed weekly through an advisory council composed of the Ministry of Education’s school safety general department and active elementary school teachers. In particular, experts from various fields such as professors, firefighters, and doctors were invited for consultation, and the videos were produced to engage students’ interest and participation in safety education.

Kim Seung-min, the PD in charge of video production for one year who received the commendation from the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Education, said, “There was a good outcome as the videos were customized for schools where there is high demand for safety education materials,” and added, “This year as well, we will continue to produce safety education materials that can be used in schools with slightly different formats to contribute to the school safety culture.”

Park Jong-hyun, the Safety Communication Officer, said, “Various laws related to safety education are being implemented, and social interest is also increasing,” and added, “We will make various efforts such as producing high-quality videos and strengthening communication so that Safe-TV can continue to grow and establish itself as Korea’s representative safety-specialized channel.”
