- Abstract
Children in junior high school are stand in transitional period between elementary and senior high school. These junior high school students are still on the period of growth and development. Therefore, they are included as vulnerable group. They always want to move and have excessive energy, so that they have a very high risk of experiencing accident, either at school or at home. In contrast, education of safety for children in school is very minimal, either in formal education (within teaching materials, educational process, and learning facilities) or in informal education through extracurricular activities. The study design used was quantitative-descriptive with observational approach. Primary data collection was performed through Focus Group Discussion with teachers and school managers, while secondary data was obtained through documental study of teaching materials from 7th to 9th grade. The result showed that teaching materials, which contained education of safety, were 30.21% in 7th grade, 6.43% in 8th grade, and 28.13% in 9th grade. The advice given was to increase teacher competency in applied safety science, so the teachers can develop their teaching materials into the real example during teaching process. Furthermore, the teachers can integrate the education of safety on thematic subjects or extracurricular.
