Annual School Safety Self-Assessment
Annual School Safety Self-Assessment
Purpose
The School Safety Self-Assessment Survey is aligned with the CSS Targets and Indicators, and is conducted by the head of the school, the school safety DRR focal point, or, ideally the school management committee with student participation.
The School Safety Self-Assessment Survey introduces a paradigm shift when it comes to the collection of school-level data. This enables rapid access and use of the data for planning and decision-making at school, subnational and national levels.

The School Safety Self-Assessment Survey is designed for:
- Education sector management: national, subnational, local levels
- Local school community
- Partners in school safety
Features
