When is the National Safety Education Day in China?

Starting from 1996, the week of the last week of March will be the national safety education day for primary and secondary school students in China. The purpose of establishing this system is to comprehensively and deeply promote the safety education of primary and secondary school students, vigorously reduce the incidence of all kinds of casualty accidents, do a good job in the safety protection of primary and secondary school students, and promote their healthy growth.

Safety accidents have become the first cause of death for children under 14. Campus safety involves more than 20 kinds of hidden dangers in teenagers' life and study: food poisoning, sports injury, online friend-making safety, traffic accidents, fire hazards, drowning, drug hazards, sexual assault, AIDS and so on.

Some experts pointed out that 80% of accidental injuries can be avoided by improving the self-protection ability of primary and secondary school students through safety education. In order to comprehensively and deeply promote safety education in primary and secondary schools, vigorously reduce the incidence of all kinds of casualty accidents, do a good job in safety protection for primary and secondary school students and promote their healthy growth, the State Education Commission, the Ministry of Labor, the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Railways, the State Sports Commission and the Ministry of Health jointly issued a notice at the beginning of 1996, and decided to establish a national "safety education day" system for primary and secondary school students. On March 25th of that year, Li Lanqing, then member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee and vice premier of the State Council, delivered a televised speech on the first safety education day for primary and secondary school students in China, demanding that the whole society should care about the safety work of primary and secondary schools.
