Application to Become a Member ofInternational Safe School Network
Urawa Gakuin Senior High School1

Yukio Ozawa, Principal of Urawa Gakuin High School
Urawa Gakuin high school has promoted a new type of education named “21stCentury Uragaku Education”, which is focused on improving students’ academic
skills at the same time as cultivating life skills and integrating international andliberal arts through the emphasis of our educational policies. In order to fully
realize this kind of educational ideology, not only teachers and administrative
staff but also students need to share common awareness of the issues. Together wemust all be able to subscribe to believe in and act upon the foundations of thisphilosophy.
Although Urawa Gakuin is a huge and diverse school, which holds 2,852 students
in total, we are committed to the importance of each and every student’s healthand safety. I had wanted to continue to promote this concept by declaring Urawa

Principal
Yukio Ozawa

Gakuin as a ‘Health & Safety’ school. At that moment, I found information on the‘International Safe School’ program and this inspired me to become more
sympathetic to the philosophy and policies of this school. Since then, I have

hoped for our school to be certified as an ‘International Safe School’, and, in respect of this, Urawa Gakuin has instigatednew policies and procedures that we have collectively been working hard to implement.
For example, our high school has a number of students commuting by bicycle and some of them occasionally are involvedin traffic incidents, such as incidental collisions. In addition to this, quite a few students suffer injuries through participatingin our broad range of school club activities, which run throughout the year. In order to minimize these incidents, all theteachers and administrative staff at our school carry out consistent risk assessment whilst cooperating closely with officials
from Saitama Prefecture and Saitama City and also liaising with the local community, including the police and fire
departments. Owing to these actions, the students have improved their attention to safety and parents have also been fully
supportive of the progress we have made. I believe that these measures are aligned with the requirements for thecertification of ‘International Safe School’.
Since Urawa Gakuin is a private high school I feel that it is more difficult to plan and carry out the actions required for‘International Safe School’ designation when compared with public high schools. Despite this difficulty, we have all madegreat efforts to embody the spirit of the ‘International Safe School’ program, fostering bonds with the local community andacquiring problem-solving skills to improve safety measures. I believe that we will continue to work hard on these matters
so as to achieve this great accomplishment.

Statement in Support of Obtaining ‘International Safe School’ Certification
We, all parents, need to share and exchange information about our children’ssafety and we always pay attention to protecting them.
In addition to this, we cooperate with Urawa Gakuin High School by sharing
information about the students and discussing it together to ensure that wecollectively maintain the students’ safety and security.
Once something is completed, people have a tendency to become careless and thiskind of casual thinking can lead to troubles and accidents. To prevent them, we do
not have to produce perfect safety measures, but they should be as close to perfectas possible and it is essential that we continue to uphold them.
Nowadays, there seems to be many places where we can feel secure. On the other
hand, there are relatively fewer places that we can say are completely safe.
Therefore, we believe that it is extremely important for all of us to continuously
consider how we can take action to increase the number of such places.

President of the Parents Association

With the rise of digital technology in today’s world, we can easily communicate

Fumio Hayashi
会with each other and share information through the Internet. However, we should
also value the analog by placing importance in communicating and taking action

with others face to face. Thus, through direct cooperation with Urawa Gakuin High School and our children, we, all parents,
will continue to make every effort for obtaining the certification of ‘International Safe School’.

school which holds the largest number of students in all high schools in Saitama prefecture. As Urawa Gakuin High School
is committed to both academics and sports, it has increased advancement rate and produced a number of professional sports
players, such as professional baseball players, American football players and so on, who have performed brilliantly in theirfields. Now, the teachers, staff and students work on various kinds of activities positively with problem-solving thoughts,

As Urawa Gakuin High School does not have the train stations from which the students can walk to school, most of them
use the bicycle, take the school bus from Higashi Kawaguchi station of JR Musashino Line, or take the public bus from JR
Omiya station. Remarkably, 50% of all students commute by bicycle and some of them spend over an hour to come toschool. As a result, their average time and distance to commute have been longer year by year. (Fig. 1-4)
And also, the area around the school has few houses and buildings, and few pedestrians in the evening, so we strongly
advise the students, in particular girls and the students who go home late after the club activities, to take the roads or streetson which they can find others and feel safe. Thus, this is the area where our school pays deep attention to the safety andsecurity.

1. The Background
In Urawa Gakuin High School, nearly 50 % of the students commute by bicycle. So, our school has to consider theprevention of the students’ dangerous factors related to the possibility of their traffic incidents.
Also, because there are as many as 2,800 students in our school, various places such as the school playground, gymnasium,
floors in the buildings may cause the students’ incidents due to the crowded situation.
Our school seeks for the measures of solving these issues continuously by data-based and evidence-based methods,
cooperating with the parents and the communities, and then our school leads the students to cultivate their problem-solving
skills for taking the safe & secure measures so as to obtain the certification of International Safe School.
In September 1, 2014, our school declared ‘Health & Safety’ school in the opening ceremony of the second semester, whichgave a boost to further safe education. The table below shows those school events.

Indicator 4: Programs that target high-risk groups and environments, and programs that
promote safety for vulnerable groups(1) Injuries Prevention Program
Recently, students are less likely to have an activity play after school, the resistance against injuries and the ability toperceive the sense of imminent danger becomes low. Cases of injuries and emergency are most likely to occur duringphysical education class.
In addition, Urawa Gakuin High School is known for its club activities and gained the highest number of club activities in
the nationwide level. Therefore, practice tends to be difficult and has possible risks of acquiring injuries.

① Emergency Life-Saving Simulation Workshop
Urawa Gakuin High School works out practical workshops in case of various emergency situations so that the teachersand staff members who face an emergency situation can conduct properly and immediately on a systematic basis.

② Setting up the AED
Automatic External Defibrillators, “AED” are set in every school building and facility, and in road trips of some clubs,
AED are carried with the other important belongings by teachers.

41(2) Fire and Disaster Prevention Program
At the time during the occurrence of the Great East Japan Earthquake, none of the students acquire any injuries, but there
were many students experience difficulty in going home.
In preparation for the next large earthquake, increase awareness in fast evacuation time and fire and disaster prevention isnecessary.

① Evacuation Drill
Urawa Gakuin High School works out practical evacuation drill including evacuation followed by EBS, fire
extinguishing training and simulated experience of the huge earthquake in the special automobile in order to secure thestudents’ and teachers’ safety in emergency cases.

② Maintenance of appointments for disasters
Urawa Gakuin High School stores blankets, electric generators, water supplies, long-term preservative food and so onin three storages as appointments for disasters and emergency food for students, teachers and staff members who may
have difficulty going home.

42

③ Changing the doors of emergency exits
Urawa Gakuin High School changed the double doors from single swing doors to pass through more easily inemergency cases.

(3) School building improvement and repair program
Urawa Gakuin High school has opened for more than 35 years, improvement, renovation and setting barrier free of schoolbuilding are needed. Furthermore, the overall number of students in school is more than 2800 students, the number ofstudents using the hallway during break time and transfer of classes are very high and it is prone to acquire injuries andthere are parts inside the school which tends to be slippery during rainy weather. Paying attention of students andimprovement and renovation of school facilities are also necessary.

① Setting up the shock-absorbing rubbers
Urawa Gakuin High School set up the shock-absorbing rubbers in external staircases to prevent the tall students fromhitting our heads.

43

② Setting up the slip resistance
Urawa Gakuin High School laid the slip resistance in some slippery spots such as hatches and connecting corridors.

(4) On the way and from school traffic safety program
Urawa Gakuin High School is distance away from any of the nearest train station like JR Higashi Kawaguchi train station,
Higashi Urawa train station and Omiya train station from that most students use bicycle as their mode of transportation to
get to school. Transporting on narrow road areas results to build up of traffic especially from the time where student are on
their way to school and coming home from school, therefore the risk of acquiring injuries is around 15% second to physicaleducation classes that most number cases of injuries in the school has been recorded. (ref.to p7 of health infirmary data) In
addition, the school entrance gate is use as the pathway for entry and exits of school bus, bicycle, and pedestrian and there isa possible risk of being struck by a vehicle.
① Dealing with road incidents
The road and sidewalk near the school is very narrow, volume of traffic causes the area to be an incident prone. In
addition, pedestrian and bicycle tend to cross diagonally without using the pedestrian crossing that can cause the risk ofbeing struck by any vehicles.
With the cooperation of Urawa Higashi police station posting of road precautions and spreading awareness is being
conducted and regularly the teachers stand near the pedestrian crossing to guide the students.

Diagonal across intersection can cause the risk of being struck by vehicles.
Urawa Higashi police station is also spreading bulletin outlining road precautions.

will remain in a blind spot.

As described above there a lot of hazardous area around the school premises. During assembly the school raise awarenessabout the different road precautions, bicycle license system and guidance patrol by teacher・parents/guardians are being
performed.
In addition, Urawa Gakuin High School is looking forward to a guidance system in which local communities are more
involve in the future.

45

② Improving the road surface around the gate
Urawa Gakuin High School set the vehicular lanes and improved the road surface to prevent incidents on a school premise.

Before construction
Problem points: There is a risk of acquiring injuries because the pedestrian area, bus and bicycle lane have notbeen divided. The most passable road surface has a hole and there is a risk for students riding in a bicycle tooverturn.

After construction
Repaired points: A part in the pedestrian lane was divided and painted in color red. A hole repair in the road surface of theabove mentioned area where bus and bicycle are passing was also completed. It separates the school bus from thepedestrian lane at the time of congestion and reduces the cases of injuries. Establishment of traffic zone for bicycle is also
kept in view in the future.

46

Indicator 5: Programs are from the Scientific Knowledge Base
① Workshops for the prevention of injuries in club activities
The students voluntarily consider decreasing injuries in club
activities each other. Captains of each club discuss themeasures.

② Activities for the prevention of injuries in PE
At the beginning of every PE class, the teacher and thestudent who belong to PE Committee lead the other students
to do warm-up exercise well to prevent injuries.

③ Research for the dangerous spots in school zone by the Parents’ Association
The teachers and the parents research for the dangerous
spots in school zone, and then make the presentation about
the result in the meeting of the Parents’ Association so as tosecure the students’ safety.

④ Committee for the prevention of bullying
Urawa Gakuin High School carries out the questionnaire for the prevention of bullying which is multiple-choice every
semester from this year, and by analyzing the data, tries to prevent the potential cases related to bullying.

⑤ Traffic instruction when students’ leaving school all at once
When students leave school all at once, teachers are divided into groups of around ten, and do traffic instruction inpedestrian crossings around the school.

47

⑥ Maintenance check of the bicycle
The Traffic Committee leads the maintenance check of the bicycle light and brakes.
⑦ Bus Boarding Instruction and Enlightenment of the manner in the public transport
Teachers call for the improvement of the manner in the public transport at the school bus stop (at Higashi Kawaguchi)
and at the public bus stop (at Omiya) every morning, by instructing students how to form a line in order not to trouble
others.
⑧ Collecting students’ experiences that were about to become the traffic accidents
We collect all the students’ experiences that were about to become the traffic incidents, and publish the names of students
for excellent works.

We also attract students’ attention by posting dangerous spot maps which were made by students’experiences.

to bullying(1) The record of injuries in school① Collecting the data of injuries including minor ones (School Infirmary Data)
Urawa Gakuin High School holds the data input system toencode the record of injuries in school.
The forms the students fill in when they use the infirmary arevaried, depending on injuries and diseases, and the students
check detailed multiple parts respectively, such as “who”,“when”, “where”, “which site”, “kind of injuries”, “treatment”
and “handling”.
Based on the special form on the right side, the staff of Health
Science Center input the answers to the database. After tallying
the data regularly, the center releases the occurrences of injuries
by posting and so on to promote the prevention of injuries.
② Collecting the record of injuries required hospital treatment (“Disaster-relief Benefit Data”)
In injuries occurred in school, the injuries whose treatments cost more than 5,000 yen are reported to Japan Sport Council,
and “Disaster-relief Benefit Data” is taken advantage of at that time.
③ Finding the potential cases related to bullying
Urawa Gakuin High School researches students’ mental state by the questionnaire for the prevention of bullying carried out
every semester.
The questionnaire enables teachers to find the potential cases related to bullying earlier.
