Abstract
The emergence of safety and security risks is a huge threat to the implementation of sustainability; therefore, safety and security education allows one to detect the symptoms of emerging crises, helps in the appropriate response to that and helps in a quick return to the path of sustainability after crisis conditions would disappear. The development of the concept of safety and security education in the context of sustainability is very important from both a scientific and practical point of view due to the fact that schools play a key role in society constituting the basic source of education for future generations of citizens, shaping awareness, competence and skills of future generations and thus creating a society that is able to analyse the opportunities and threats arising from the changing economic, social, environmental, technological, political and legal environment. The aim of the paper is to indicate the key factors for improving the security and safety education in the context of sustainability and to prepare the recommendations for preparing the security and safety courses. To complete that objective studies, Computer-Assisted Web Interview either with students or with security and safety experts were used in the study. The survey was conducted among two representative samples of high school students in Poland—one sample 418 high school students from regular high schools, and 100 from solitaire classes. The results from the CAWI were discussed with 20 security and safety experts to indicate the learning methods and tools to improve safety and security education. The main finding from the study was that safety and security education must be improved because respondents saw gaps in their knowledge on several issues in the area of safety and security. Modern training methods should be included in safety education, e.g., e-learning platforms, Serious games, social media, virtual worlds, simulators, integrated systems using e.g., kinect, VR goggles, accessories, mobile technologies.

Summary
“We have changed our environment so radically that we have no choice but to change ourselves and adapt to this changing environment” Norbert Wiener “The Human Use of Human Beings”. The new quality of education is strongly associated with innovation, creativity, the ability to analyse the environment and quick response to the emerging threats. Safety education plays a very important role in creating the right attitudes of the society in the aspect of improving their security, because it influences the appropriate behaviour of members of the given communities. The education system, at both secondary and higher levels, contributes to change and accelerates sustainable development for the generation, and universities are the key to a sustainable future. The preferred by respondents, education forms for security and safety in the context of sustainable development? The preferred by respondents, education techniques to perform effective security and safety education courses for high school and university students?
