Student project
The main aim of this research into the School Fire Education Program was to evaluate and establish the level of its effectiveness across a number of cohorts and across time. Within that overall aim, a more targeted aim of this research was to investigate and review Key Safety Messages by examining their retention and application (including under stress) at the completion of the SFEP.
