The partners of the e-PPR project (www.e-ppr.eu) carried out a transnational study between Oct-17 and Jan-18 to identify teachers and students’ needs regarding training on response to the emergencies most likely to occur in schools. In total, 677 school teachers from six EU countries (Denmark, Estonia, Romania, United Kingdom, Spain and Lithuania) participated in this study. Results showed that 22.36% of the teachers and 33.37% of the students have not been trained at all. For 41.46% of the teachers and 47.19% of the students who were trained, the training was 'not enough' because it was limited to evacuation in case of fire (87.75% teachers, 94.18% students) and it was too short (less than 3 hours for 62.53% of the teachers, and less than 1 hour for 58.43% of the students). The emergency areas where more training was demanded were: first aid, fire, terrorist threat, earthquake and toxic cloud.In this context, in order to respond to the identified training needs of primary and secondary school teachers and students across the EU, the objective of the project was to develop the first e-learning platform for primary and secondary school teachers and students on how to respond to the emergencies most likely to occur in EU schools.The e-learning platform is accessible from computers, tablets and smartphones in 5 languages (English, Danish, Spanish, Estonian and Lithuanian) at www.schoolemergency.eu and it has the following sections:E-LEARNING for school teachers on how to respond to the emergencies most likely to occur in EU schools.TOOLKITS for school teachers with ready materials for lessons connected to the emergencies most likely to occur in EU schools.EVALUATION TOOLS to assess the learning and get feedback from the students.ONLINE FORUM AND SOCIAL NETWORKS so teachers across the EU can share their experiences and support each other.Once the first development of the e-learning platform was completed, it was tested by the three partners from the sector of school education, and a Danish school as an associated partner: 15 teachers and 271 students in total participated in the testing. Based on the testers’ feedback, the project partners implemented additional improvements before the final publication of the School Emergency e-learning platform. Beyond the partners, the content of the e-learning platform has the potential to be exploited by a wide range of organisations and individuals. Thanks to its deployment as an OER under the Creative Commons license 'Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International (CC BY-SA 4.0)', anyone is allowed to, not only use it, but also to modify it. Therefore, the content of the e-learning platform will serve as the impulsion for future innovations and developments in the sector of school education across the EU.This cross-sectoral and cross-border partnership is an initiative of Frederiksborg Fire and Rescue Service (Denmark) in collaboration with Alcala de Guadaira Fire and Rescue Service (Spain), Estonian Rescue Board (Estonia), Vilnius Division of Civil Protection (Lithuania), Vilniaus 'Genio' school (Lithuania), Gaia school (Estonia), and the high school Profesor Tierno Galván (Spain). The School Emergency project is co-funded by the Erasmus + Programme of the European Union.
