Final Proposal

Injury Prevention at School

              A very effective way of preventing injuries is using the SMARTRISKS  sistem, wich meands evaluating the risks of every activity you are doing.

              First, we are proposing to include injury prevention as a subject. Also the sports teacher must get a trainig of this issue, and and the mouth guard is going to be obligatory to train or play rugby.

              Also a very good idea to prevent injuries is to made activities including the whole family of the pupil.       Examples of this are interactive games related to the issue and also educative workshop.

              A huge problem, is that the teachers, including sport ones, are not trained is this very important issue for the health of the pupil.

              First, one goal is to train all the teachers about this issue, include risk prevention us a subject and also include this topic in the parent-teacher interview.

              The first one is that it will be very difficult to creat a new subject (injury prevention) and to organize a new schedule whit it. Also it will be very difficult to get all the teachers trained with the issue.

              All the teachers will be trained and the school will be a safer place, the parent will know about this and get involved with it and finaly, there will be a new subject called "Risk and Injury Prevention".
