Abstract

This study analyzed the perception of fire safety education methods, satisfaction, consciousness, and behavior as the risk of fire increases due to the high-rise nature, complexity, and undergroundization of new schools and the aging of older school buildings. Based on the analysis, this study proposes improvement measures such as effective fire safety education methods, support measures, and curriculum organization. Differences in perception and needs between faculty and staff were first analyzed based on data of selfawareness of fire safety education conducted for school faculty and staff in the Sejong City Office of Education. As a result, remote training was the highest in the fire safety education method, and satisfaction was in the order of teachers, administrative staff, and educational assistants. In addition, the degree of change in fire safety awareness of faculty and staff was found in the order of teachers, administrative staff, and educational assistants. The degree of change in fire safety behavior was also in the order of teachers, administrative staff, and educational assistants, and an overall low awareness was found. By analyzing these needs, the following improvement measures are suggested. First, fire safety education should be conducted based on practice and experience from the perspective of an activist curriculum to enhance the ability to respond to actual incidents involving fire safety. Second, by linking fire safety education with the seven areas of school safety education, self-directed response ability can be enhanced from the perspective of a constructivist curriculum. Third, a plan is proposed to design and operate a fire safety curriculum by specializing in fire safety education according to the role of faculty members such as teachers and administrative staff.
