Dayanand Public School Organises Safety Training for Van and Auto Drivers to Ensure Student Security

Jamshedpur, July 4: In a proactive move to enhance student safety, Dayanand Public School (DPS) organized a comprehensive safety training session for van and auto drivers responsible for transporting children to and from school. The initiative reflects the institution’s firm commitment to ensuring the security and well-being of every student.

As student enrolment continues to rise, the school has expanded its infrastructure with new classrooms, a modern Amphitheatre, a Multipurpose Hall, and a state-of-the-art Digital Library. However, alongside this physical growth, the school has prioritized safety — not just within the campus, but also in daily commutes.

Understanding the vital role of transport staff in student safety, the school regularly conducts sensitization sessions for drivers. During these meetings, drivers are trained on road safety, discipline, and legal responsibilities. They are encouraged to adhere strictly to all safety norms, with regular monitoring to ensure compliance. Parents are also included in the process, promoting a culture of shared accountability.

School management maintains a continuous dialogue with stakeholders—teachers, parents, and support staff—inviting feedback and suggestions on safety protocols. One of the school’s most effective practices is the staggered dispersal system, which eases crowding and ensures safe exit for students.

What sets Dayanand Public School apart is its inclusive and responsive approach. By fostering active participation from all quarters and emphasizing training and awareness, the school is setting new standards in student safety, both within the campus and beyond.
